Greektown Casino Declares Bankruptcy

From Indianz:

The Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians announced that it has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for its commercial casino in Detroit, Michigan.

The tribe has a majority stake in Greektown Casino, one of three gaming facilities in the city. The tribe was facing state deadlines to improve its financial standing. The tribe says the casino is not broke but that it needs $140 million in financing to complete work on a permanent casino.

    Thanks for the update, but the links don’t work. I’m a little surprised based on the location about the trouble they are having…will have to stay updated.
