The recently kicked off project will thus be the fourth major expansion of the hotel and casino resort. A new hotel tower, a spa, the Grand Theater and The District family entertainment center opened doors in 2015. In 2012, the Choctaw Nation refurbished and reopened the Choctaw Lodge and Choctaw Inn. The tribe debuted the 12-story Grand Tower four years later to accommodate casino patrons. Back then, it featured a 100,000-square-foot casino.
The hotel and casino resort originally opened doors in 2006 as Choctaw Casino. News about the Durant-based property’s expansion first emerged last fall. A subsidiary of major general contractor Tutor Perini was picked to deliver the project. The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma broke ground on Thursday on a previously announced $500 million plan for the expansion of the Choctaw Casino & Resort in Durant, Oklahoma.
USA.- April 29th 2019 Casino & Resort is expected to debut more than 1,000 new rooms and additional amenities in the spring of 2021
