Horseshoe Casino Cleveland

Posted Tuesday, October 18, 2011

The first phase of the Horseshoe Casino Cleveland is set to open in the Higbee building in March. It's a sure bet to draw gamblers, but will the finished casino also draw economic development dollars to Northeast Ohio? The casino's general manager, Marcus Glover, joins the Sound of Ideas to talk about how a Cleveland casino can connect with the rest of downtown. Will it be an economic boon, or just another entertainment alternative? Join us, Tuesday at 9:00 on 90.3.
