Now there’s one more place – Albany. In a story from WNYT, the casino and resort would be built near exit 23 of the Thruway. According to an article in the Times Union, this project has been named ‘Project E23'. Besides the casino and resort, there’s also a plan to include a 40,000 square foot water park.

A few things that are being looked at with this establishment are possible jobs for people, and revenue for the city.
