The J Resort is doubling down on planned investments for the downtown Reno hotel-casino property, with an additional $130 million on tap for further improvements to the property.
The plans include $5 million toward a new J Resort’s Festival Grounds, which further expands on its Glow Plaza concept for concerts and events. The rest is earmarked for predevelopment work and construction for the hotel-casino’s north expansion.
“The improvements will include our new front entrance off West 4th Street, as well as a 20-foot-tall sculpture, which was recently commissioned in Italy from … sculptor Richard Erdman,” said Jonathan Boulware, regional vice president for Jacobs Entertainment.
