I think it's a great idea. I think we have a lot to show off in this community. We have more high-quality performing arts per capita than many of our sister cities.

It is about getting involved in the betterment of us all. This community will stop growing if we don't broaden our net.

This community has won,

I am excited to be part of the Forest City/Harrah's team. I've lived and played in this community for years and I believe these two companies bring the expertise and strengths that Pittsburgh needs to make gaming successful. This partnership will help Pittsburgh and our communities continue to grow and improve. If the gaming commission selects Forest City and Harrah's, I am honored to be the President of the foundation and serve our City.

We want to express our heartfelt sympathy to the families of all the victims and to all the community for this senseless tragedy. Please say prayers for everyone touched by these terrible events.

I think this whole thing is huge for the community. We turned around the Department of Defense.
