oh so it will be tables, too. yeah, its def going to be a mess with traffic/congestion and the types of folks who hang around casinos. on one hand, wouldn't mind seeing some other stuff in the area but don't know if i like it being at the harbor. oh well...guess we will see. also, i am wondering if they could've made an agreement to atleast hire majority MD residents and a percentage of DC/VA folks and not bring in too many people from outside. |
the harbor already has too many teens in the summer

Most MD contracts have a clause to hire local residents only. The percentage varies based on the size and impact of the project.
On the traffic issue, it will only be like that for a couple months after opening in my opinion. That's what happened with hollywood and Maryland live. I don't even remember they exist most days. O

i thought that casino was putting on ads against the proposition bc they can't add table games but the new one would have table games |
I believe that you're correct. |

I think they will add table games to Maryland Live now (Arundel Mills - Hanover, MD)
I am happy about that even though I don't gamble

i agree the traffic will be insane but hopefully the money will also accomodate work to expand the roads. they've already made some improvements on expanding the highways around the bridge.
