Community groups oppose plan to establish Times Square casino

Caesar is attempting to construct a Vegas-style casino at Broadway, Times Square, in an attempt to obtain one of the three downstate casino licenses. A coalition of organizations is opposing this endeavor. The No Times Square Casino Coalition now includes TDF, the Council of Chelsea Block Associations, and the National Organization for Women.

Concerns raised by the group include crime, falling property values, addiction to gambling, and the general effect on quality of life.
