FROM THE START, lawyer Kevin Greenberg said that a coalition of community members he represents near the site of a proposed casino on North Broad Street would take neither an anti-casino nor a pro-casino position.

“We are really concerned about traffic, parking, security and safety issues for the community,” he said.

But several neighbors are upset after learning that Greenberg’s firm also represents Isle of Capri, the casino operator selected last month by developer Bart Blatstein for his proposed complex at Broad and Callowhill streets.
