New York would be fertile ground for anyone.Not just Adleson
I predict it won't happen in this century. New York is too political a place to have it happen. Too many problems catering to the powerful New York labor unions. New York is passe. Adelson would be better off spending the money on his Pennsylvania casinos.
California is ripe for Casinos they already have many Indian Casinos and if it is good enough for the Indians it is good enough for everyone else. Why discriminate? Then the Bullet train could be for the people who live in Nevada to commute to California to go to work.
