Morongo’s announcement is the latest in a busy year of construction and remodeling for Southern California casinos.

The tribe said the expansion will create an additional 425 new full-time jobs. “From our many new dining options to the elegance and aura of our gaming floor, this expansion and renovation project will transform the very heart of the 27-story Morongo Casino tower – the tallest building in Riverside County – while setting the new standard for Southern California gaming.”Ĭonstruction on the project is scheduled to begin in October and will take about 18 months to complete. “At Morongo, our goal is always to exceed the expectations of our guests by offering an unmatched gaming and resort experience,” Robert Martin, the Morongo Band of Mission Indians’ tribal chairman said in a statement. The project includes overhauls and replacements of several of the resort’s eateries as well as building a second parking structure, which will add 750 free valet parking spaces. Morongo currently has 150,000 square feet of gaming space and plans to add 65,000 square feet to that footprint, adding 800 new machines and table games.

The Morongo Band of Mission Indians announced it will expand its gaming space, build a new bar and lounge and freshen up existing amenities at the resort. Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa in Cabazon is the latest among the list of Southern California casinos betting on expansion and renovation projects.
