A new, modern hotel casino may be coming to Reno within the next four years if everything goes as planned for its developers.

Representatives from Elevation Entertainment were part of a town hall hosted by the city Thursday for Ward 2 members to go over the plans and discuss any issues people might have about the project.

The development’s area would cover almost 20 acres that are partially vacant at the northwest corner of the intersection of South Virginia Street and Kietzke Lane.

“It is time for this site to be redeveloped,” said Ryan Stone with the San Diego-based development firm. “It feels like the doughnut hole of Reno. It feels like a site that’s just been blighted and abandoned for so long.”
