Churchill Downs Incorporated has announced they have filed an application with the Vigo County Area Planning Department to rezone approximately 49 acres located on East Margaret Drive just west of State Road 46.
The application seeks approval to rezone the property as a C3 Regional Commerce District in order to begin the development process for the Queen of Terre Haute Casino Resort.
CDI’s proposed location for the development of the Queen of Terre Haute is subject to approval from the Indiana Gaming Commission.
The initial scope of the Queen of Terre Haute project remains unchanged as a result of the proposed location; however, the larger site may provide additional opportunities for expansion in the future.
The approximately 400,000-square-foot development is projected to usher a $190 million annual economic impact and create 1000 construction jobs as well as 500 permanent positions.
