RESORTS WORLD NEW YORK CITY
THE PROPOSAL An updated economic analysis shows Resorts World New York City will create more than 100,000 construction, permanent, indirect and induced jobs should it realise the proposed 5.6- million-square-foot integrated resort – the largest in the United States. Te development will include a 500,000- square-foot casino hosting 10,800 gaming positions, a 7,000-seat entertainment venue, 30 new dining options, day clubs and spas, more than 12 acres of greenspace, as well as $2bn in community investments.
Between spending $5.5bn developing the site and $2bn on community benefits, Genting is spending $7.5bn around the project. Resorts World New York City is projected to deliver the highest Gross Gaming Revenue and the highest casino taxes of any applicant – regardless of how many licences are awarded and to what combination of the remaining bidders – generating up to $4bn by 2031 in the high-case scenario in
Location: The former Aqueduct Racetrack/Rockaway Blvd area in Ozone Park, Queens Casino Operator: Genting

which one casino licence is awarded. State and local tax payments for the initial 10 years of operations will total up to $18.8bn.
WHAT'S THE LATEST? Among the competitors vying for up to three downstate gaming licenses, a fully permitted Resorts World New York City stands alone in its readiness to scale operations and start generating benefits for the city and state starting with a June 29, 2026 opening date - years before other bidders are predicting to open their doors.
Upon receiving a full commercial licence, Resorts World New York City will immediately begin construction and hire 1,000 new team members for the June 2026 opening of the initial phase. Tere has been unanimous approval without amendment from the Community Advisory Committee and the people of Queens over the course of two hearings.
