The MGM National Harbor is a US$1.4 billion resort in Oxon Hill, Maryland. The resort opened on December 8, 2016,[1] and is owned and operated by MGM Resorts International.[2][3][4]
History[edit]
MGM Resorts International received a license in December 2013 to develop a US$925 million resort (later increased to US$1.2 billion[3][4]) in National Harbor.[2][4] The company received the license after competing with bids from Penn National Gaming to develop a US$700 million facility at its Rosecroft Raceway and Greenwood Racing to develop a US$761 million facility near Maryland Route 210.[4]
Construction on MGM National Harbor began in April 2014, and opened on December 8, 2016.[1][3]
MBE participation[edit]
In April 2015, the MGM casino was sued by a group of Prince George’s County businesses[5] who claimed the casino didn't comply with minority business enterprise (MBE) contracting standards.[6][7]
Child electrocution[edit]
On June 26, 2018 a seven-year-old girl suffered traumatic brain injury while visiting the casino. Due to a faulty installation of a device meant to control the electrical flow to the rail lighting, Zynae Green was electrocuted and left wheelchair bound for the rest of her life. Despite the family's pleas for help, MGM security did nothing immediately after she was injured. When Prince George's County Police Officers arrived they started the resuscitation. The incident prompted an FBI investigation and the family has not been compensated more than a year after the incident. [8]
Cheating[edit]
In 2019, a baccarat dealer who worked at the casino was sentenced to 18 months in prison for a cheating scheme. Ming Zhang showed his co-conspirators cards before they were dealt, who split the winnings with him. [9]
Boxing death[edit]
Russian boxer Maxim Dadashev died on July 23, 2019, from injuries suffered during a July 19 boxing match at the Theater at MGM National Harbor.[10]
Design[edit]
The white exterior of the building is in keeping with the marble used in many of the buildings in Washington DC. The organization of the casino is along a central axis, similar to the arrangement for the National Mall.[11] The design was provided by HKS, Inc. while the architect of record for the project is SmithGroupJJR.[12]

MGM National Harbor includes a 23-story hotel with 308 rooms, 135,000 square feet (12,500 m2) in gaming space, retail space, a spa, seven restaurants, a 3,000-seat theater with seven VIP suites, 27,000 square feet (2,500 m2) of meeting and event space, and a parking garage for 4,800 cars.[2][3]
The resort's public spaces feature a permanent collection of art inspired by the Washington metropolitan area and developed in collaboration with Prince George's County Arts and Humanities Council, Atlantic Arts, and RareCulture.[13][14] Artists, sculptors, and photographers featured in the collection include Alice Aycock, Charles Hinman, Chul Hyun Ahn, John Safer, Liao Yibai, Margaret Boozer, Martha Jackson Jarvis, Sam Gilliam, and Terry O'Neill.[13][14] The west entrance to the facility features a 25-by-15-foot (7.6 m × 4.6 m) iron archway composed of 'found objects' such as farming tools, children's toys, wheels and axes designed by Bob Dylan.[15]
