I entered the casino from the top floor of the establishment and was surprised to find that there were no identification checks, but as it turns out, that’s because there are only a few sports betting kiosks and machines (with someone stationed nearby to check ID) on the top floor. Perhaps realizing this, it is clear that Cordish Companies made an effort to focus on the inclusion of some non-gambling amenities which, in addition to the mall itself, might draw some family visitors to the property. While I mean no offense to this casino, if one were equidistant from any of the other casinos listed above, except arguably Lady Luck Nemacolin (depending on the vibe that you want), then I could not imagine not going to one of those other casinos instead. They might also be able to pull some visitors from Ligonier, Somerset, Johnstown and a few other places east. While I’m sure that the locals in the small towns surrounding the area are happy, given the proximity of other regional casinos (and how full or not they tend to be) it’s difficult to tell whether or not there was any real need for this casino, though competition tends to be a good thing for players. This property is located about an hour Southwest of North Shore Pittsburgh, (where Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is located) an hour east and slightly north of Meadows Casino (Washington, PA), an hour ten almost due north of Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin (Farmington, PA) and about an hour 45 northeast of Rocky Gap Casino (Flintstone, Maryland). Depending on how much one likes to drive, one might not even consider this casino anywhere near Pittsburgh.

While the casino is called Live! Casino Pittsburgh, that’s just because Pittsburgh is the closest major city to the facility.

Opened: November, 24th, 2020 (Opening Delayed due to Covid-19).

Location: Westmoreland Mall (5256 US-30, Greensburg, PA 15601).

While some of the offerings were not open at the time of my visit, (early afternoon on a Monday) I was able to chat up a few staff members (who are all very friendly) in order to fill in the blanks.

In the early part of June, 2021, I had the opportunity to stop in at the relatively new Live! Casino Pittsburgh for a look around.
