Brief: Harrah’s $840 million casino advances

Tuesday, Oct. 20, 1998 | 3:41 a.m.

Gaming Control Board approval is needed as Harrah's prepares to resume construction on its stalled New Orleans casino.

The New Orleans City Council last week approved a revised lease for the $840 million project, clearing one of the last hurdles before it can emerge from bankruptcy and resume construction.

The city owns the land on which the casino is built.
