All three New York City casino applicants have been approved for licenses by the State Gaming Commission.

Bally�s Bronx, Hard Rock Metropolitan Park in Flushing, and Resorts World at Aqueduct Racetrack were granted gaming facility licenses after nearly a year of voting and discussion.

The approvals were made Monday at Riverbank State Park, where members of the public shouted �Shame on you!� during the commission�s meeting.
