Bacaran Bay will get a new name

It was reported in the Sun Herald that they Bacaran Bay Casino will get a new name. It hasn’t been released what the name will be, but when we find out we will post. It also looks like they are not going to be selling the condominiums anymore.

The project will be referred to as the Phoenix Caillavet Street Project, said Phoenix Gaming Group Managing Director John Ed Ainsworth, while they test market a new name.

“The first thing we needed to do was to stop the confusion,” he said. “This is no longer a Torguson project. That ended on March 18.” Phoenix Gaming Group was formed between Caillavet Street Development Group, the owner of the land where the casino will be built, and Firegame LLC, a finance company that holds an interest in the project.

Ainsworth said the casino resort will be reconfigured without condominiums. It will be built right off Interstate 110 on Caillavet Street at the west edge of the casino loop between the Back Bay and Biloxi beach. The resort was to have both a hotel and condos, several restaurants, plus shopping, nightclub and convention space.
