Don't see it happening, speculation was the Burj (Al Arab) was going to be a casino and certainly the bar on the cross piece had casino carpeting when it opened, including blackjack and roulette themes and even clearly marked stations. Killed by the neighbours just before opening and hence the "gift" of the building to SZ shortly after.
Old hands will also remember the casino ships that used to sail every Friday to return Saturday morning, in the end shut down by the neighbours again.
So pretty doubtful.
