Bally’s marked a key construction milestone on its permanent Chicago casino project with the installation of the final structural beam, as the company reaffirmed plans to open the $1.7 billion development in early 2027.
The project, a 30-acre redevelopment of the former Chicago Tribune Freedom Center site, had originally been expected to open in 2025 but has been pushed back after a series of delays.
The casino's construction progress signifies a significant step towards the grand opening, offering a glimpse into the future entertainment hub in Chicago.
