When Could Main Street Station and Eastside Cannery Reopen? Depends on Tourism Volume

DOWNTOWN and EASTSIDE — Two of Boyd Gaming’s resorts remain closed, and potential volume plays a role in when they may return. Main Street Station depends on downtown traffic and Hawaiian visitors, while Eastside Cannery serves the Eastside community. During an earnings call last week, Josh Hirsburg, Boyd’s executive vice president and chief financial officer, said the odds of Main Street Station reopening are better. “I think we are in the process of making plans to potentially reopen Main Street Station downtown based on growing demand for our product there.” Both closed in March 2020 when the state shut down nonessential businesses to slow the spread of COVID-19.
