Seneca Nation plans sportsbooks at three casinos

November 9, 2019

The Seneca Nation has partnered with Kambi Group plc, a global sports betting supplier, to install sports betting products inside three Seneca casinos in Western New York. The casinos are Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino in Niagara Falls, Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino in Buffalo, and Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino in Salamanca.

The deal is subject to approval from the New York State Gaming Commission.

Kambi will install the following types of sports betting equipment in each of the 3 Seneca casinos:

• Betting kiosks (state-of-the-art)

• Displays and signage (digitally-configurable)

• Free-to-play sportsbook products

• 'Bring Your Own Device' technology - enables bettors to view odds and bets on mobil devices while inside the casinos.

Holly Gagnon, President and CEO at Seneca Gaming Corporation, said:

'We are so excited to bring sports betting to our guests. Seneca Resorts & Casinos remains steadfast in providing the latest and greatest offerings to our customers in entertainment, resort experience, and of course gaming. This collaboration brings a whole new level of excitement.'

Equipment installation at Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino will begin immediately after state approval. All three casinos will be completed by end of year.

When mobile and online sports betting become authorized in New York, Kambi will provide the Seneca Gaming Corporation with the hardware and software needed for those services.

Seneca Niagara Casino starts $40 million renovation

April 27, 2018

A massive renovation project has been announced for the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino. The facility is 15 years old. The project will change the outside, entrance, and lobby.

The casino is owned by the Seneca Nation of Indians.

Seneca Arrival Experience is what the project has been named. When guests arrive from the Robert Moses Parkway they will be able to see a dramatic change to the exterior. The casino is located next to Niagara Falls.

The road leading to the facility will have new landscaping. There will be sculptures. The entrance will have a new cover added. There will also be a glass facade that will be new.

The lobby will also undergo a renovation. The Lobby Bar will be moved to a different location. The casino floor will be more visible as guests enter the building.

In the next few weeks is when construction is scheduled to begin. By the end of this year is the estimated completion date for the building's outside. By fall of next year is when the entire renovation project is expected to be completed.

The casino will remain open during the construction. The goal will be to continue with the work that needs to be done for the project without disturbing guests to the casino resort.

In 2002 a convention center was transformed into the casino resort for a cost of $560 million. It took 100 days to complete. After the current project is finished, the total investment will total to $600 million.

There are 80 game tables and 3,000 slot machines in operation at the casino. There is also a hotel that is 26 floors.

In the western part of New York state, the Seneca Nation owns three casinos.

Entertainment[edit]

The Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel is home to the Seneca Niagara Events Center, a 2,400-seat theater that has hosted various performing artists, including Stevie Nicks, Tony Bennett, Aretha Franklin, Martina McBride, Trace Adkins, Lewis Black, Lisa Lampanelli, Steely Dan, Heart, Steve Miller Band, Huey Lewis and the News, Gretchen Wilson, Air Supply, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross, Blondie, Jeff Foxworthy, Jay Leno, The Moody Blues, Grand Funk Railroad, Cheap Trick, Jim Gaffigan, New Kids on the Block, Seth Meyers, The Pointer Sisters, Chicago, The Go-Go's, Bobby Vinton, Tracy Morgan, Jackson Browne, Frank Caliendo, Michael Bolton and more.

Expansion[edit]

In February 2008, the Seneca Gaming Corp. announced the expansion of the Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel Property. It will add more hotel rooms, and other amenities.^{[citation needed]} It acquired Fallsville Splash Park, located next to the Seneca Niagara Casino, which was condemned by the State of New York and transferred to the Seneca Gaming Corporation. It was demolished for Phase 2 of expansion of the Niagara Falls casino.

Legal Issues[edit]

Adjacent properties owned by Seneca Gaming Corp.[edit]

Adjacent properties owned by the Seneca Gaming Corporation are not located on Seneca territory owned by the Nation, therefore it is technically illegal to put slot machines or provide for gambling. The Splash Park Property where Phase 2 of expansion is to take place is also located on non-sovereign land.

The former Convention Center is located on sovereign land, and the casino is operated by Gaming Corporation.

Taxing of non-sovereign adjacent properties owned by the Gaming Corporation[edit]

Use of the surrounding area adjacent to the Seneca Niagara Casino by the Seneca Nation for gaming has been the subject of a class-action lawsuit filed by attorney John Bartolomei in October 2010 on behalf of Fallsite LLC and residents who are angry over a 4% tax hike to be passed in 2011. The Seneca Niagara Casino is located on sovereign land owned by the Seneca Nation of Indians.

But, the land adjacent to the casino, including parking garages adjacent to Niagara St., the site of a former Pizza Hut on the corner of Niagara St. and John B. Daly Blvd., the Holiday Inn property on the corner of 3rd Street and Duggar Drive, the former Niagara Aerospace Museum in between 3rd and 4th Streets and Niagara Street and Wendel Way, the former E. Dent Lackey Plaza (now a parking lot) in between Wendel Way, Duggar Drive, 3rd Street and 4th Street, former private homes on 5th and 6th Streets, and the Splash Park Property on the corner of Falls Street and John B. Daly Blvd, are owned by the Seneca Gaming Corporation. The Seneca Gaming Corporation is non-sovereign and therefore taxable, but was left off the city tax rolls. If taxed, the corporation would be the largest payer of taxes in the City of Niagara Falls.^{[citation needed]}

Other properties[edit]

The Seneca Nation operates other gaming casinos on its property in New York state:

• Seneca Allegany Casino - This facility in Salamanca, New York, on the Allegany Indian Reservation, features a casino, spa, six restaurants and a new hotel completed in 2007.
• Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino - Seneca Nation's newest casino is located in downtown Buffalo, New York.
