The Seneca Nation won't be investing in a proposed commercial casino in New York.

Seneca Gaming Corporation was brought on solely as a manager for the $150 million Traditions at the Glen. The financial backers haven't been disclosed.

“At this time now, we’re not ready to disclose the financiers that we have in the project," ” Bill Walsh, whose family owns the existing facility, told The Elmira Star-Gazette.

The Senecas manage and operate three Class III gaming facilities and one Class II gaming facility. Another Class II facility will open this summer.
