New York Wynn casino opposed by West siders

According to Protect the High Line, an organization working to preserve the eponymous West Side Manhattan neighborhood, a sizable majority of locals are against Related Cos. and Wynn Resorts' proposal to build a casino hotel there.

Politicians who represent districts like the High Line have criticized the change, which has also acted as a catalyst for the involvement of additional opposition organizations.
 
The pushback from locals and politicians against the casino hotel proposal by Related Cos. and Wynn Resorts in the High Line area is quite telling. It’s clear that community sentiment plays a significant role in shaping developments in such iconic neighborhoods. Organizations like Protect the High Line are crucial in rallying residents and advocating for preservation over commercialization. The fact that additional opposition groups are getting involved shows that this isn't just a localized issue; it touches on broader concerns about urban development, quality of life, and maintaining the character of cherished public spaces. It's essential for developers to consider the voices of those who live and work in these communities.
