The Poarch Band of Creek Indians in Alabama plan to finish a $65 million expansion project early next year.
The Creek Casino Montgomery will see a hotel with 119 rooms, a salon and event center.
A BB King's Blues Club, a 195-seat Itta Bena Restaurant and a casual eatery -- Lucille's Restaurant, which was due to open around Thanksgiving -- are also a part of the project.
Rolin Construction, a firm owned by a tribal member, and Rabren General Contractors, are handling the project.
