During an Illinois Gaming Board Suitability Hearing Thursday morning, Danville Development, LLC received clearance for their plans to construct a casino at the proposed location off Lynch Road on Eastgate Drive. The owners stated that construction of the casino would take about 11 months, and that the first phase of the casino would bring in 300 jobs.
The proposed Golden Nugget Danville Casino will feature a 41,500 square foot gaming floor with 500 slot machines, 14 table games, two restaurants, including a Saltgrass Steakhouse, a sportsbook, and 650 surface parking spaces. The project will offer an online gaming and digital sports betting platform through Golden Nugget Online Gaming, Inc.
