The Shreveport-Bossier gambling market may never be “the next Vegas” as was once thought possible 30 years ago, but Louisiana’s top gaming regulator believes the revival of the shuttered former Diamond Jacks Casino property can provide a spark to reverse a nearly two-decade decline.
Executives for The Cordish Companies, the new owner of Diamond Jacks, have promised to deliver a transformative project that will vault the property into a destination gaming resort after years of musical chairs ownership.
“We intend for it to be a game-changing project for the Bossier City market,” Cordish Gaming CEO Rob Norton said in a previous interview with USA Today Network. Diamond Jacks has been closed since 2020.
