Aqueduct Entertainment Group's short reign as the designated developer for a casino at the Aqueduct racetrack has ended. The Times reports that the company provided "insufficient financial details" for its investors and won't be getting the contract. Governor Paterson's office said it now wants to pursue a "traditional, though rapid," process for developing the site. The decision is not much of a surprise, but we're still sad to say goodbye to a design that was basically the city in miniature. [NYT; previously]
