The Isle of Capri Casinos Company declares the beginning of fashionable casino construction plan at Pompano Park with minimal investment of 150 million dollars. The company already activates fifteen casinos in thirteen different locations. Now, the east cost of Pompano will receive a two-story building on tropical theme. The 150.000-square-foot facility will include 1.500 slot machines, a poker room, a multi-story bar, the company-branded Steakhouse, sports bar and new horse racing amenities.
There was a real uncertainty at first regarding rules governing slot machines in Broward County, but since new facility would generate economic benefits for the local economy, the dispute has resolved itself for the sake of education and great entertainment.
This rather expensive, 150 million dollars, project will be the first phase in Isle of Capri's development of Pompano. Shopping, housing and hotels will come next. The Isle of Capri will also invest ten million dollars in its existing pari-mutuel facility. The acceptable philosophy is to integrate professional experience with the gaming one to create better economical conditions for all people involved in the business.
