It will be more entertainment and more food venues, but keeping that feel for the locals.”

If things go according to plan, construction will begin on the new 110,000-square-foot facility before the end of 2017, with completion expected either towards the end of 2018 or in early 2019, according to The Everett Herald. Originally called, Tulalip Casino, the Quil Ceda Creek Casino opened 25 years ago and will be torn down once the new casino is completed. In Washington, later this year, the Tulalip Tribes will reportedly break ground on a $100 million replacement for the existing Quil Ceda Creek Casino in Snohomish County.
