Re: SUN INTERNATIONAL - RESORTS--ARCHIE NEEDED

"Isn't Sun the company that made wild promises for improving/rebuilding the Resorts AC property and then the project was
wittled down to almost nothing?"

Yes it is. However much the shrinkage from the wild promise, the changes were for the better. ARCHIE or some AC'er might provide additional insight;

John and Travis..... If you can call $50 million "next to nothing"<g>

Sun's original plan called for a complete theme overhaul at the aging Resorts property. It was to be renamed "The Beach Club" and owner Sol Kirzner announced that he would be spending $150 million to completely renovate the property that would rival his Paradise Island casino hotel. Instead, he decided to scale down and do some cosmetic changes, primarily a new entrance for the valet porte coerche and brighten up the inside of the casino with some new ceiling lighting .... carpeting .... bubble lava-type pillars that remind me of the old Vegas World theme. He did put in a new entertainment lounge called the 1133 Club that offers some top name acts with free admission. Overall, the place looks much nicer and cleaner.... but it's a far cry from what was originally announced.

BTW: The February numbers are just in for the 12 casinos and it was their best February EVER!
