Crown Resorts boss James Packer has made a final pitch to win the Queen’s Wharf casino license, saying that he can turn Brisbane into a world-class destination much as he did in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

In an interview with the Sunday Mail, Packer said the company is “going the extra mile” in order to win the Brisbane license.

“We have significantly improved our proposal. It’s a very strong offer for the people of Queensland. I personally want Brisbane to be part of our international resort network,” said Packer. “Crown is a global company and Brisbane can be a great global city. Crown can help bring world-class entertainment and events to the city and transform Queen’s Wharf, just like we have done in Melbourne at Southbank and Burswood in Perth.”

If approved, Crown’s property would feature Brisbane’s first six-star hotel, two five-star ones, a water park, a large casino floor, etc. The gambling operator is working together with Chinese real estate developer Greenland Holdings on the expensive project.
