Isle of Capri Corp. this morning has been selected to build a new casino in Pennsylvania.
The Creve Coeur-based gaming company will partner with theNemacolin Woodlands Resort south of Pittsburgh on a $50 million Lady Luck casino. It'll include 600 slot machines and 28 table games on Nemacolin's 2,000 acre resort campus.
Isle was selected for a license Thursday by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board. Once the license is formally awarded, it expects construction to last about nine months.
Last year, the gaming company also won the final license available in Missouri, to build a $125 million casino in Cape Girardeau. It broke ground on that property last week and hopes to open in late 2012.
