• Major Project In The Works At Mohegan Sun (patch.com) — Residents near Montville will see major changes at Mohegan Sun as the casino invests $25 million to renovate its arena once the Connecticut Sun finish their final season there in September. The project will temporarily close the venue while upgrading seating, concourses, and entry areas, even as big-name concerts remain on the schedule later this year.
