GVA Marquette Site ComparisonGVA Marquette Site Comparison

“We believe the Pinnacle site is the superior site among the five sites evaluated. A casino at this location, in combination with the Schlitterbahn attraction and lodging units, would create a unique gaming destination that would expand the regional gaming market, thus maximizing the amount of revenue generated by visitors from outside the local market… For these reasons we believe that this site is likely to generate the highest gaming revenues of the five sites evaluated.”
