While construction on the towering Bally’s Chicago hotel has stalled amid a dispute with the city over video gambling terminals, a more modest hotel is going up by the new Hollywood Casino Joliet — along with a host of new retailers.
One year after Hollywood Casino Joliet launched a $185 million land-based casino in the Rock Run Collection, the sprawling 310-acre mixed-use development is breaking new ground by the busy Interstate 80 and Interstate 55 interchange. On Thursday, developer Cullinan Properties revealed five major retailers — Five Below, Maurices, Spencer’s, Buckle and Milano Nail Salon — which are set to join previously announced anchor tenant Dick’s House of Sport in opening next year.
