MGM Resorts has been checking out the world’s biggest fish market as a potential location for a casino in Japan.
CEO Jim Murren has visited Tokyo’s Tsukiji market, which the city would consider selling when the vendors relocate to a bigger facility being built on Tokyo Bay, about two and a half miles away.
Tsukiji would be an alternative to the Odaiba district in Tokyo which has been sited as a favoured region for a casino. Tsukiji would provide a greater number of visitors given its close proximity to public transport and other tourist attractions. The existing Tsukiji fish market draws 42,000 visitors daily.
