The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe of Texas recently announced it will build a new casino resort on its reservation near Livingston in Polk County.
Tribal Council Chairman Ricky Sylestine said, “We are incredibly excited to embark on this new chapter. This new casino resort will not only provide significant economic benefits for those living and working in the region, but it will also become a vibrant destination for visitors.”
Sylestine said details still are being finalized, however the project may include a state-of-the-art casino floor, hotel and a variety of dining and entertainment options. The tribe has hired the architectural firm FFKR to design the new casino resort.
The tribe also announced it will extensively remodel its existing Ischoopa/One Stop Convenience Store and Truck Stop, including offering electronic bingo machines.
The tribe owns and operates Naskila Casino in Livingston, located one hour outside Houston.
