Gambling on New Year’s Eve along with a sit-down dinner looks like a distinct possibility for people in the Waukegan area.
Plans continue for a December opening of a newly built interim casino structure adjacent to the Fountain Square Shopping Center in Waukegan providing table games, slot machines, a variety of dining options and a sportsbook.
Alex Stolyar, the senior vice president and chief development officer for American Place owner Full House Resorts, said with the temporary structure now complete, the Turner Construction Co. can focus on completing the foundation and interior.
“They’re connecting utilities and pouring the concrete floor,” he said of the 75,000-square-foot building.
