There is a new proposal out there that has been taken with differing opinions but it still seems that the plans for Star City Casino are almost complete. There have also been motions to build a shopping mall with hotel/casino within, which will host a tunnel leading to a harbour. But even better as Australia is so warm so often the move will see the largest outdoor casino ever which eradicate the smoking ban issue. Probably making it the most possible casino in the world.
The smoking area idea has got the most press coverage so far but the cost of the whole project is still at the for front as it will cost around AUS$300 million. It will be a five star hotel which will have 302 rooms and a shopping centre which will house everything everyone needs to buy before a days gambling.
All the relevant authorities are leaning heavily towards the venture and there are the idea will be seen very very soon. It is to be seen whether or not this will spring up thousands of new underground shopping malls with casinos for smokers but it is a very clever way to catch the industry when the smoking ban takes over.
