The existing Holiday Inn will be refurbished as part of the plan. This is a joint venture between a joint venture of Cordish Co. of Baltimore which runs XFINITY Live! and Greenwood Gaming & Entertainment which runs Parx Casino in Bensalem.

CBS 3 is being sued over a false child sex-abuse report. Anchorman Chris May is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit filed by Howard Rubin, a former school police supervisor at a city charter school. CBS never checked with the school or police on the reason for Rubin’s departure from the school. In a newscast, the station reported Rubin was fired over allegations he sexually abused a boy. The false story apparently came to the TV station by an adversary of Rubin’s.
