BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Crews will break ground on Wednesday on the new Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino in downtown Buffalo.

The $130 million building will stand at the corner of Michigan Avenue and Perry Street, replacing the nearby temporary casino. It will replace the much smaller, temporary casino nearby that opened in 2007 and has been expanded twice.

The new casino is expected to open late next year.
