I drove through there today from Florida heading to Lafayette, La. If anyone ever built a casino there, it would be unbelievable. That location is a few short feet south of I-10, there is a small airport, harbor, a nice golf community on the north side of the interstate. I asked a local real estate agent about it and this development has had a very suspect history for decades. A lot if not most of the property is or could be considered wetlands, but itβs got a great view and no one else has a casino location like this. Makes me wonder why this hasnβt happened by now. The ice cream at the Dairy Queen was good too. The state of Mississippi is doing some massive interstate improvements along there because they are getting a new Buc-ees 2 or 3 exits to the east.

Tell me how the lawsuit is going to go.
Wait, I will tell you. Just like the last one.
Judge says you owe these people money. Deborah says, I am owed just as much. Judge says you need to list the property for sale.
Deborah says, we just listed it for sale. With Colliers, the best of the best.
What else do you want? Weβre trying to sell a property. Or a joint venture of course.
Let Colliers do their job.
Everybody will get their money. just let Colliers do their job.
This lawsuit is terribly timed. Itβs like theyβre cutting off their nose to spite their face.
Part of me thinks theyβre trying to steal the property, but thatβs just my own crazy theory.
We just listed with Colliers. Apparently they really love this property and they think that itβs one of the better places to put foreign money that wants to get into the United States.
Colliers is one of the best as far as having an international footprint. Ask chat GPT lol.
And to be clear, I am not saying that these people do not deserve their money.
They do!
I believe theyβre making pretty good interest in the meantime.

Well this company needed marketing more than anything else. Colliers is one of the top real estate firms in the world, with strong international connections.
In commenting on the opportunity, Patrick Slagle, Vice President of Colliers in Washington, D.C. stated: "We believe the Diamondhead site is one of the best remaining gaming sites in the entire country. Its location on Interstate 10, between Biloxi and New Orleans, coupled with the accessibility to the site provided by nearby airports makes it one of the most easily accessible gaming sites in the country. It is a 400-acre blank slate with over two miles of waterfront and ready to be developed as a mixed-use resort with a casino as an anchor and a two mile boardwalk.
We know of nothing comparable and no other opportunity of this nature in the industry.
With over eighteen million vehicles passing the site annually on Interstate 10, it is an ideal gaming location. The Gulf Coast region of the United States where this casino would be located, is one of the fastest growing gambling markets in the United States. We look forward to finding the perfect match for this outstanding location.β
