Cordish Companies Completes Topping-Out Milestone for Permanent Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia Facility
Summary
The Cordish Companies and Bruce Smith Enterprise marked the topping-out of the permanent Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia in Petersburg. The facility, scheduled to open in late 2027, will feature 1,600 slots, over 70 table games, a 35-table poker room, a sportsbook, and a 200-room hotel. It replaces a temporary casino that opened in January with 900 slots and 33 table games. The project is projected to generate $2.8 billion in economic stimulus and $504 million in tax revenues over its first decade, including $240 million for Petersburg. Virginia officials, including Speaker Don Scott and Mayor Samuel Parham, attended the ceremony. The milestone keeps the development on track for its planned debut.
