Wynn just pulled his bid in Philadelphia and there have been rumors that he is very close to doing the same with Everett.
Sometime back I posted a theory that Wynn might not be serious about Foxboro/Everett. I remembered when he came to Conn. a few years back to build a casino in Hartford. In hindsight, the whole effort looked like a ploy to throw the newly opened Foxwoods off its game and perhaps make some financially questionable deals with the state to keep Wynn out. A short time later, Foxwoods agreed to give the state a quarter of their gross slot handle on the condition that no other casino be allowed to enter the state and Wynn was never heard from again. (Foxwoods modified their agreement to allow Mohegan Sun a year later. Don't ask me why.)
Wynn's courting of Everett could have been a strategic move to keep Ceasars - his largest competitor - out of the northeast and damge their reputation. Now that those objectives have been reached, the only thing keeping here would be an un-yielding ambition to build a casino in Everett, Mass.
I think Building a casino near Boston will be very lucrative for a casino investor and operator.
Exactly, Wynn is technically in the best position right now aside from the fact that he is not found suitable yet. If you can win the Region A license, you will have the most lucrative development in the state and possibly New England.

I don't believe Wynn is sold on Everett's site in the end. Maybe he should just buy Malden Square since the orange line roles right in there.
...As inept as our state gov't is, they will find a way to insure that Wynn is approved less they have egg all over their faces if their drawn out multi-year "process" in the end results in zero qualified operators from the Eastern casino license (I am assuming Milford voters vote "no"). They won't let that happen.
Took a ride by the site in Everett last night, you cant get close to the actual land
