Groundbreaking for the 300,000 square-foot complex, owned and operated by the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority and the state’s first casino, occurred in May 2007. The announced opening date is two weeks ahead of schedule.
Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs President and CEO Robert J. Soper said, “Project Sunrise has been designed to celebrate the people, history and natural resources of northeastern Pennsylvania."
The new Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs will feature 2,500 slot machines and electronic virtual table games. It also will offer nationally recognized restaurants, including Ruth's Chris Steak House and the Rustic Kitchen Bistro and Bar, and 7,000 square feet of retail space, with shops such as Brookstone, Marshall Rousso and Misura.
