It’s Thursday, so I’ve got a new Green Felt Journal in Vegas Seven. This week, I profile new Hard Rock Hotel president Joseph Magliarditi:
The Hard Rock Hotel got a new president and chief executive officer on June 1. Joseph A. Magliarditi comes with extensive experience in the Las Vegas casino industry and promises to bring a new focus to the property.
Magliarditi started in gaming operations with the Marnell family at the Rio, where he shepherded the property through several expansions and stayed on after Harrah’s Entertainment acquired it in 1999.
Interesting talking to Mr. Magliarditi–he definitely knows the market and I’m interested in seeing how his plans to go after the locals slot market work out.
