The newly named Tribal Winds Casino is expected to support 2,000 construction jobs, 2,000 positions to staff the facility and 1,000 indirect jobs supporting vendors, tribal officials said. The plan would designate at least 650 jobs for residents of Hartford, East Hartford, East Windsor, Windsor Locks and other area communities. The casino was previously named MMCT Venture LLC, in recognition of the joint initiative of the Mashantucket and Mohegan tribes, who operate competing casinos on their reservations in southeast Connecticut.
