Empire City Casino Welcomes Back Patrons
$6,000 Welcome Bonus
Empire City Casino in Yonkers is the latest gaming hotspot to launch operation following the green light that the government gave earlier this month. The mandatory lockdown all across New York State commenced half a year ago. Gov. Andrew Cuomo gave his greenlight to the commercial casinos reopening process on September 9.
Empire City Casino in Yonkers will open on Monday. It had been closed for nearly half a year. Tribal casinos operate with the help of special compacts with state government. They have the freedom to evaluate the situation themselves and come up with their own conditions and restrictions. The government had not issued its approval of the reopening of all commercial gaming locations.
Yonkers Raceway launched at 10 a.m. The gaming hall is expected to welcome up to 25 percent of its capacity. New York State Government has mandated that gaming halls work at a quarter of their original capacity and the casino operator has worked on the extensive safety protocols.
