Casino: (
Satellite)
The Indiana lake shore has some interesting combinations of casinos and industry. I already knew about
Ameristar Casino, which is close to a steel plant. The Majestic Star Casino facility is near a cement plant.
Google Maps doesn't have any labels for this facility. A little Googling indicates it was shut down in July 2019 "due to its continually declining occupancy and the need for immediate, large-scale renovations to bring it up to Spectacle's standards."
The harbor still has its gambling boats.

Not an easy harbor to catch any boat activity but we were successful. Many thanks to [Lou Gerard]) for his suggestions & road directions! I think it is time to consider a drone! Lol."

Carmeuse has five kilns so that stone is used to make cement.
