Happy Valley Casino representatives on Wednesday revealed updated renderings and details for the new gambling venue at the Nittany Mall.
The new look at the category 4 casino, scheduled for an April grand opening, came during a hearing in Harrisburg in which the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board unanimously approved authorization for the facility to operate 600 slot machines and issuance of a certificate to operate table games. The casino still needs to request issuance of a slot machine license, which is expected to occur in December.
