Potawatomi Hotel & Casino Opens Two New Gaming Areas as Second Part of $190M Project
Potawatomi Hotel & Casino has now opened the second phase of its $190m renovation project with two new gaming areas; ElevenHundred and the Atrium, offering more slots, table games, new bars, and new restaurants.
Focussing on the casino’s Skywalk level, the second phase of renovations officially opened with a new bar and restaurant called Street Eatz and The 1833 Club, a VIP space for Potawatomi’s diamond and emerald club members as well as Rock & Brews and Cream City Coffee Co. Earlier in the year, the casino also launched its temporary sportsbook and its new Potawatomi Marketplace food hall space, both found on the ground floor.
Potawatomi Hotel & Casino CEO Dominic Ortiz, said: “This really sets us up for long-term success in the city, as we see all of our other key partners elevate their stadiums, their teams, their games. Everybody in Milwaukee seems to be bringing their A-game, right? So we didn’t want to be left out. We want to be champions, we want to be number one and we want to bring the best entertainment destination in the entire region. And that’s what we delivered here today.”
The new gaming areas offer hundreds of new slot machines and more than a dozen new tables with the new ElevenHundred gaming room, offering 600 new machines.
“I really believe the ElevenHundred Bar really resets the stage for the entire city. You have to come see this bar – the elements, the decor, the LED, the integration, the lighting and, last but not least, a first-class list of specialty drinks,” Ortiz said.
The 1833 Club is reserved for diamond and emerald-level Fire Keeper’s Club members, and offers more slot machines, bartop slots, a sportsbook kiosk, and high-limit tables.
“To make sure that we recognize our best customers, our best guests, we wanted to make sure that they were amazed and had a place that they could call their own. This room by far has the highest-end decor and the most attention put to provide elevated VIP service,” Ortiz said.
The 1833 Club soft-opened last week, but is now fully open to emerald and diamond members.
The renowned Mexican operator Logrand has installed Zitro’s new CONCEPT cabinets and a selection of its latest games at the New York Casino in Monterrey.
Building on its global success, the CONCEPT cabinet line stands out for its Magic Lighting, immersing players in a synchronized light display, resulting in a unique sensory experience. Furthermore, the cabinet’s large Screen Deck blends comfort with intuitive functionality, optimizing the experience for players and operational teams.
The installation of the CONCEPT cabinets is complemented by the addition of the medieval-themed multi-game Legendary Sword, in which players can double their prizes through unique mechanics with the help of a magic sword.
On the other hand, Fairyland Quest takes players to an enchanted forest where Magic Mushrooms give access to a different bonus each, while a friendly Fairy will give a special bonus that doubles the playing area.
Juan David Baracaldo, Director of Operations and Product, highlighted: “The addition of Zitro’s CONCEPT cabinets is a great step to continue offering unique and high-quality experiences to our players. The unique combination of technology, spectacular graphics, and the experience these cabinets offer will further elevate our casino’s entertainment offering.”
For his part, Johnny Ortiz Viveiros, founder of Zitro, expressed: “We are very excited to strengthen our partnership with Logrand, a strategic partner that shares our vision of providing exceptional gaming experiences. The new CONCEPT cabinets and games like Legendary Sword and Fairyland Quest are just the beginning of what will transform how players enjoy entertainment.”
Sky River Casino has announced that an Elk Grove resident has won a whopping $511,311 while playing progressive blackjack on March 31, 2025. The Sky River Rewards member hit the big win after playing the table game for less than an hour.
“Our progressive table games and slot machines continue to be really hot here at Sky River Casino. Our players have had an impressive number of life-changing jackpots and our winning streak continues. We look forward to the next big win and welcome adults near and far to visit to explore and enjoy our high-energy atmosphere, lively promotions, exciting gaming, and unparalleled dining experiences,” said Michael J. Facenda, President of Sky River Casino.
The lucky local guest plans to use her winnings to renovate a kitchen and build a house back home.
“Without question, the best part of my job is watching our valued members and guests experience jaw dropping wins like this one. We all share in the incredible excitement that is absolutely contagious and can be felt throughout the casino,” said Charleen Ripley, VP of Casino Operations for Sky River Casino.
