Full construction at the site started about a month ago. Curtatone had filed numerous environmental complaints that delayed casino mogul Steve Wynn’s proposed start time, but backed off in late August. Wynn will hold seven job fairs over the next two weeks in Everett, Malden, Cambridge, Medford, Roxbury, Chelsea and Charlestown, where union reps and subcontractors will take questions about filling the jobs. Robert DeSalvio, president of Wynn Boston Harbor, said the 3-million-square-foot project would create more than 4,000 construction jobs and 10 million labor hours. This is going to be big for everybody in the business.” “(Wynn Boston Harbor is) putting their money up, and we’re more than prepared.

“People are coming in from all over the place,” Louis Mandarini, president of Laborer’s Local 22, said of workers looking for opportunities at the Everett site. A series of job fairs at the $2.1 billion Wynn casino will be packed with workers looking for a piece of the massive construction project, with union officials saying that despite the construction boom in the Boston area, the gaming palace is on a “fast track” to get built.
