The grand opening of Resorts World Hudson Valley will take place on Wednesday, December 28, company executives announced.
Located in Orange County at the Newburgh Mall, just 60 miles north of Manhattan, RWHV will feature 50,000 square feet of gaming and hospitality space, including 1,200 state-of-the-art slot machines and electronic table games, as well as the Resorts World Bet Sports Bar.
Robert DeSalvio, President, Genting Americas East, said: “Resorts World Hudson Valley represents a shared vision that we, along with our partners in Orange County, had to create an entertainment destination that will attract hundreds of thousands of guests and visitors, while providing tremendous benefits to the local, regional and statewide community.” DeSalvio added: “We are delighted to open our doors this holiday season and welcome everyone to Resorts World Hudson Valley!”
The opening of RWHV brings 250 new full-time jobs with an average annual wage of $72,000. RWHV will contribute an estimated $65 million in taxes yearly to support NYS public schools. To date, Resorts World properties throughout the state have contributed more than $3.6 billion to support public schools in New York.
The casino will also provide a halo effect inside of the mall property it inhabits, playing a crucial role in a revitalization plan to benefit current tenants at the Newburgh mall and attract new ones. Resorts World Hudson Valley is Genting’s third entertainment destination in New York, joining Resorts World Catskills in Monticello and Resorts World New York City in Queens.
Across its three properties, Genting has invested more than $1.2 billion, including $50 million in RWHV.
Resorts World Hudson Valley features 1,200 slots and electronic table games and a Resorts World BET Sports Bar.
Located one hour north of New York City, Resorts World Hudson Valley is a day away.
RWHV is operated by the Genting Group, a global company founded in 1965, operating destination resorts in Las Vegas, Bimini, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, and the United Kingdom. Genting has more than 50 years of experience in the travel and leisure industry and collectively employs approximately 60,000 people while offering an unparalleled resort experience to over 50 million visitors a year worldwide.
