Months ago, the initial designs for Aquis Great Barrier Reef Resort were released. They made a good impression on Cairns residents and gaming industry professionals, but the property has recently been redesigned. The new design gives the casino resort a more futuristic look, and the blogging team at OnlinePokies4U likes what we see.
No official announcements have been made that the property’s look has been changed from the original design. However, The Cairns Post got its hands on a leaked image that shows an artist’s impression of a casino resort that looks nothing like the original plans. The original design featured a large building surrounded by water and a ring of land. Around the main building were several smaller buildings.
Each one featured unique architecture with slanted walls. It was quite impressive and had a sleek design that would attract a wide range of visitors, so there is no telling why the developers chose to change the look. When asked about the redesign, Aquis kept remained tight-lipped.
A company spokesperson said: “Full details of any changes to Aquis, including revised architectural plans, will be made available upon the release of the Environmental Impact Statement”. Regardless of how the new casino resort looks, it will be a huge boon to the local economy. In addition to bringing in valuable tourism dollars from international residents, the venues will also create thousands of jobs.
During construction, more than 9000 jobs will be created. After the property is open for business, there will be 10 000 permanent job openings available. Tony Fung, the brains behind the project, has also encouraged local businesses to come forward and offer their assistance.
This will further help to boost the economy by providing contractors and entrepreneurs from across the state with additional business.
