MGM Grand Coming to Detroit in October

You know we love to hear news that a new casino is opening up, and this time the Motor City is the lucky winner of a brand new MGM Grand! We have been to Detroit before, and the usual gaming opportunities are sadly over the border in Canada. Now it looks like Detroit is going to put up its own fight and keep that gaming in the good ole' USA!

Casino City Times has the story:

MGM Grand Detroit today announced that it will open its more than $800 million hotel and entertainment destination on October 2 raising Detroit's luxury hospitality offerings to unparalleled heights. Upon opening, MGM MIRAGE (NYSE:MGM) will have invested more than $1 billion into the community, demonstrating its commitment to the redevelopment of downtown Detroit and its intent to fuel economic growth while increasing business and leisure travel to the area. MGM Grand Detroit is owned by MGM MIRAGE and Partners Detroit, a group of local Detroit investors.
