Golden Nugget Casino Opens in Illinois

New casinos open all the time, but sometimes they need to start with a temporary venue until the final version of the project is complete. Illinois recently got a temporary Golden Nugget Casino.

Danville Development is the company behind this casino. The new casino offers a variety of games and gives visitors a taste of what’s to come once the project is finished. In other words, it is just the beginning of a big casino project in Illinois. It already got a bit of attention.

It’s a Temporary One, but It Gets a Lot of Attention

New casino projects are there to give casino fans a new place to visit, an entertainment spot for regular visitors, and a boost for the economy. These projects also rely on local workforce when they’re being built and once they’re done, locals will take up staffing positions. Once the tax has been paid, all parties involved agree on the benefits of these projects.

The Golden Nugget Casino in Illinois is no different. It’s a temporary casino that’s going to span 30,000 square feet in total and will include a steakhouse restaurant. In addition to that, the venue will also have a sportsbook to keep sports enthusiasts interested. When it comes to the casino section, offers a variety of table games as well as around 500 slots.

The city of Danville provided the officials of the casino with a temporary license and once the project is done, then these officials will apply for a regular one. The temporary casino is open to the public and has already received its first visitors.

As mentioned before, the project is still being developed and built which means there are interesting options in consideration. In other words, a hotel might be added to the premises, and several other dining options including conference rooms. Still, the temporary casino is a success as it has attracted avid fans to the premises. As it’s developing the Golden Nugget Casino is shaping up to be another success story in the state of Illinois.

Conclusion

Danville got a new temporary casino with Golden Nugget Casino. So far, this project has a single steak house, and some table and slot games, but it’s doing a great job of attracting casino fans. Moreover, the project is in the building phase which means more attractions will be added such as hotels and other dining options.
