Jake’s 58 is giving Long Islanders a peek behind the curtain. Or, rather, the work cranes and scaffolding.
The Islandia hotel and casino, along with Aurora Contractors, LLC, just shared a video to Instagram that highlights the progress being made on the casino and hotel’s massive $210 million expansion, which broke ground last spring.
The 300,000-square-foot project, being led by Aurora, will nearly double the size of Jake’s 58, adding a slew of new features including restaurants, a conference center, an exhibition hall and concert venue.

The buildout also includes plans for an ultra-VIP lounge with an outdoor terrace and hundreds of new hotel rooms.
