Welcome to the New York Gaming Association’s (NYGA) 2015 Annual Report. Our
nine member facilities, located in every region of the state, have a $3 billion economic
impact, support 27,000 jobs and provide critical and substantial support for our
schools, local governments, racing and breeding industries, construction industry and
charitable organizations.
This past year marked several notable milestones for New York state’s gaming industry.
Despite saturation concerns, our members’ facilities continue to outperform our competitors
in the Northeast regional market. 2015 witnessed major groundbreakings for NYGA
members including two new hotels at Batavia Downs Gaming as well as Saratoga Casino and
Raceway. Empire Resort’s Montreign Resort Casino project was granted a gaming license
from the New York Gaming Facility Location Board. Tioga Downs was recommended for a
license, but it is awaiting the final approvals before being granted a license. And for the first
time ever, NYGA members’ revenue in support of our schools exceeded $888 million.
We hope this report helps bring to light the many positive impacts NYGA members have
on the economic health and well‑being of our host communities. As we enter 2016, we look
forward to continuing our successful partnership with the state.
James Featherstonhaugh
