The overall theme for the development was that of an Italian village. Casino resort designĬope Linder Architects and Bower Lewis Thrower Architects were contracted to design the Borgata and to provide construction documents. It was funded by $414m in equity and $630m in financing from a consortium of five banks. The Borgata casino resort is a joint venture between Boyd Gaming and MGM Mirage. The Borgata’s developers contributed $110m towards the new road’s $330m total cost. The 27 acre site has benefited from the Atlantic City-Brigantine Connector, which has allowed much easier access to the casino than would have previously been available. The hotel and casino was actually built on a brown field site top of the old city dump. 'The Borgata hotel casino complex required $1bn to build and is the largest hotel in the area.'
