"New York Governor Andrew Cuomo laid out an ambitious plan for the state that included plans for a 3.8 million-square-foot convention center in Queens – as well as what could be New York City’s first full-blown casino," CPE News Editor Nicholas Ziegler wrote.
Parts of the plan involve some private financing and selling the Javits Convention Center on Manhattan's West Side.
