La remodelación del casino, de 250 millones de dólares, está programada para inaugurarse en 2025.
The Cordish Companies ha presentado sus planes a la Junta de Control de Juegos de Luisiana (LGCB) para reconstruir el Diamond Jacks Casino & Hotel de Luisiana en Bossier City. La compañía dijo que los planes incluyen construir un Live! con sede en tierra Casino y eliminación del destino de barcos fluviales existente.

Cordish dijo que prevé completar el proyecto de 250 millones de dólares y abrir sus puertas al público en 2025.

Joe Weinberg, socio gerente del grupo, comentó: "Estamos muy entusiasmados y honrados de presentar nuestros planes a la Junta de Control de Juegos de Luisiana y darles las gracias por su entusiasta apoyo a nuestro proyecto.

"¡En vivo! El Casino & Hotel Louisiana será un destino turístico de clase mundial que brindará una experiencia de juego, gastronomía, entretenimiento y hospitalidad de primera clase a la región, creará nuevos empleos importantes y generará millones de dólares en beneficios económicos para la comunidad. Esperamos trabajar con Foundation Gaming & Entertainment, los funcionarios estatales y locales y la comunidad para llevar el proyecto a buen puerto".

Los planes actuales de las instalaciones incluyen más de 47,000 pies cuadrados de espacio para juegos. La nueva sala de juegos del casino albergará más de 1000 máquinas tragamonedas y juegos de mesa electrónicos, así como 30 juegos de mesa con acción real.

El presidente de la LGCB, Ronnie Johns, dijo: "La Junta de Control de Juegos de Luisiana espera trabajar con The Cordish Companies para llevar un destino de casinos y entretenimiento al mercado de Bossier/Shreveport. Agradecemos a Cordish por elegir Louisiana para aportar su experiencia y su importante inversión a nuestro mercado de juegos.

"La Junta también quiere dar las gracias a Foundation Gaming por su visión al iniciar este proceso tan necesario de reconstrucción de un casino cerrado. Trabajaremos en estrecha colaboración con la Fundación y Cordish para hacer realidad este proyecto lo antes posible y ofrecer un destino de juegos y entretenimiento del que Louisiana pueda estar orgullosa".
