Pequot Tribe moves forward with outlet mall at casino

The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation of Connecticut will break ground on an outlet mall at its casino this summer, The New London Day reports.

The 320,000-square-foot mall at the Foxwoods Resort Casino will feature 85 stores. It's expected to open in two years.

"It will have retailers that are very prominent yet new to this area," Foxwoods President and Chief Executive Scott Butera said during an online chat on theday.com. "It will allow us to provide our customers with upscale merchandise that will differentiate us from most other casino operators."
