Yes, Gringo is closing. Yes, Anthony is leasing the space. No, Anthony doesn't own the building. I am sure he will have right of first refusal once the family that owns the building decides to sell.

As for the Casino idea... I don't believe there is enough parking to support a Casino in the Weirs.

Lots of other changes as well... Ellacoya will be running the Boardwalk down by the Weirs beach sign. Dox will be taking over Anthony's on the Pier, The family that was running Anthony's will be moving to where Bar Salida was. Compass Cafe is in going to change hands as well although to whom yet is not clear.

Yes there are many positive changes happening at the Weirs. Agree with you on the parking issue.

A casino is not a good idea, The Weirs is a special place ,it needs to attract tourists more than gamblers.

The gambling is probably something that he has investigated and it fits with the current subgroup of customers in his other businesses.

Charitable casinos are not worth going to as the odds on table games are worse than in REAL casinos.

I was shocked to see how bad the odds were at the craps table at the old dog track some years ago.

Heard that the Tower has bought it and will be reopening a new restaurant, something about an ohmage to Nothin' Fancy? Don't know much but that is the rumor that I have heard.

I have been waiting for years for Fun Spot to come out and announce the Bingo Hall building will be a casino.

Not saying they are, not saying they are not, and I do not have any information just saying I'm very surprised it has not happened yet
