ATLANTIC CITY - September 10, 2009 China State Construction Engineering Corp., the construction arm
of the Chinese government, said in a filing with the Shanghai Stock
Exchange that it is forming a construction consortium worth $1.7
billion with Revel Entertainment and Tishman Construction to
complete what is likely to be Atlantic City's last new casino for
quite awhile.
Last year the project's pace was slowed due to the recession.
All but exterior work on the $2 billion ocean-themed Boardwalk
casino was halted and hundreds of construction workers were laid
off in January.
The Chinese company will own 51 percent of the construction
partnership.
