New York Mets owner Steve Cohen is partnering with Hard Rock International on a proposal to build an $8 billion casino and entertainment complex on a 50-acre parking lot in Queens next to Citi Field. 

While Cohen’s plans to build a casino have been known for months, the details of his proposal, along with confirmation of his partners, were released for the first time Tuesday," as reported by Fortune, citing Laura Nahmias of Bloomberg News. The hedge fund billionaire is vying with nearly a dozen other applicants for one of only three coveted state licenses to build a full-scale casino in downstate New York. The state has yet to set a deadline for when prospective casino bids are due, or when it will make its decision on which bidders are granted a license.
