New York casinos remain dormant while neighbors rebound from pandemic

(New York).- The end of July marks a fourth consecutive month of zero revenues for four commercial casinos in upstate New York, thanks to a triple whammy of political decisions.
Neighboring New Jersey and Pennsylvania have maintained respectable revenue levels with online casino gaming and mobile sports betting throughout the COVID-19 global pandemic, and both states have reopened their brick-and-mortar casinos.
In Connecticut, another state bordering New York, tribal casinos Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods reopened on June 1 — although this week, one staff member at Foxwoods with limited interaction with the public did test positive for the virus.
But New York? The only legal, regulated gambling residents can do in the state as August beckons is at tribal casinos hours north of New York City. The Oneida Nation’s three casinos in Central New York reopened more than six weeks ago, the Seneca Nation’s three casinos in Western New York also have reopened, and the Cayuga Nation has reopened its casino as well.
It initially was expected that casinos would reopen under certain conditions under “Phase 4” of the state’s plan. But earlier this month, casinos were bounced from the list of businesses that can resume operation in the early stages of that phase.
