Details have begun to emerge on the future Ho-Chunk Gaming Casino in Beloit.

Plans include a $405 million casino, convention, and 18-story hotel to be built at the southeast corner of Willowbrook and Colley roads between Willowbrook Road and Interstate 39-90.

The 240,478-square-foot casino will house a 62-seat bar, four restaurants with an outdoor patio, and a 76,413-square-foot conference center, and a 312-room hotel — with a lobby bar, rooftop bar, and spa — and parking structure to be built in separate phases after the initial casino opens.

The eventual hotel facade will use a color-changing media mesh lighting system to “create waterfall effects, chasing sequences of color and a variety of video and patterns with content that could include branding, holidays, and special events.”
