The $8 billion Citi Field casino proposal in Queens, backed by Mets owner Steve Cohen, has passed a key local vote and moved closer to approval, despite mixed community reactions and ongoing protests. The project aims to create a large entertainment complex and thousands of jobs, but faces opposition over concerns about displacement and community impact. It is one of eight proposals competing for three licenses in the region, with final decisions expected in December.
