Springetts mini-casino on track to open by late 2021
Penn National s mini-casino in Springettsbury Township is expected to open by late 2021, officials said.
Construction on the project, which halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and inclement weather, should fully resume once temperatures consistently exceed 40 degrees, said Jeff Morris, a spokesperson for Penn National. The exterior build is in progress, with a lot of it having been paused due to cold weather, Morris said via email. We expect to open late in 2021.
In addition, interior construction has also started up at the York Galleria mall, located at 2899 Whiteford Road, he said.
The $120 million project, which was originally estimated to be completed in 12 months, was unanimously approved for a gambling license by the state Gaming Control Board in 2019.
