Springfield, Massachusetts a magnet for casino hopefuls

22 July 2012

The Boston Globe reports that as many as four top-tier casino developers have informed Springfield Mayor Domenic J. Sarno and other officials that they would like to build a gambling resort in this struggling city on the Connecticut River, a level of interest unmatched in other parts of the state that will force developers into direct competition even before they apply for a state license.

The Globe reports that while several Bay State communities have slammed the door on casinos, Sarno put out the welcome mat in the spring, saying he would “fight tooth and nail” to bring a casino to Springfield.
