New Casino in Seven Springs

The Seven Springs Mountain Resort plans to build a casino that will span across 27 000 square-feet. It will be located in Somerset County, one hour southeast of Pittsburgh. This $5.4 million project will create over 300 jobs.

But you won't see any flashy neon lights that are standard in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. The design will have a mountain theme that will include wood and stone. CEO of Seven Springs, Scott Bender, wants the casino to be "modest" and to resemble the resort.
