Todd Greenberg, Foxwoods' chief operating officer, has left "to pursue other interests," Scott Butera, Foxwoods' president and chief executive officer, said Monday in a message to other Foxwoods executives, while a Mohegan Sun spokeswoman confirmed Tuesday that Brian Bork, Mohegan Sun's chief marketing officer, had recently decided to leave the Uncasville casino.
"We have devised a strong interim plan for the departments directly affected by this change. …" Butera said of Greenberg's leaving. "Please know that we remain keenly focused on our vision for the success of Foxwoods."
Foxwoods is reorganizing its workforce, a process that involves the elimination of an unspecified number of jobs.
Greenberg was elevated to the COO's position in August 2011, six months after his hiring as senior vice president, a post in which he oversaw the Mashantucket Pequot Gaming Enterprise's gaming operations. The tribal enterprise operates Foxwoods, including MGM Grand at Foxwoods.
Outlets? Where?
When Foxwoods announced the building of The Premier Outlet Shoppes at Foxwoods, a new $100 million-plus luxury retail outlet center, I just didn't ask the question - WHERE? Construction of the 320,000-square-foot center — with its 85 luxury outlets and a retractable roof for seasonable outdoor shopping — is set to begin this spring. I found this artists rendering in an archived article from the Boston Herald:
I believe the white "U" shaped building is where it will be built. From right to left, you have the MGM parking garage, the hotel tower, the casino, and in the upper left hand corner you can see the connecting hallway to Foxwoods.
That's all for now.
