With the Rada expected to legalize casino gambling this spring, Boris Fuchsman, a co-owner of Hilton Kyiv says he plans to invest up to $30 million to create two casinos in the 26-floor building on Taras Shevchenko Boulevard. There would be a 1,000 square meter casino on an upper floor of the central tower and a 2,000 square meter casino below ground, Fuchsman tells The Page news site. Under one version of the gambling bill, casinos could be opened in Kyiv in hotels with more than 200 rooms, and, outside of Kyiv in hotels with at least 120 rooms. The Hilton has 262 rooms. Nearby, the long-shuttered Renaissance Leipzig hotel has 173 rooms.
