More about New York, New York:

Built in 1997 by Gaskin and Bezanski; Yates Silverman.

It's new and contemporary, but still my personal favorite casino space. It's because of that I Dream of Jeanie episode where Jeannie blinks a waterfall down Major Nelson's staircase because he's overdue for a vacation. I love any building that has a realistic river and waterfall inside and the river running through the Central Park Casino is just wonderful.

On the outside of the building, notice the recreation of an historic Pepsi Cola pouring animated neon sign. And the Broadway Theater Marquee is also worth noting.

The artistic interpretation of New York's West village has some very nice signage. the one thing I do miss is the life sized models of the Temptations in a 1964 Lincoln convertible at the now closed Motown Café. In its place is the Sports themed ESPN Zone.
