Graton Resort & Casino, a facility owned by the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, has broken ground on the expansion project of the Rohnert Park resort, California, US.

The estimated value of this expansion project is $1bn, reported North Bay Business Journal.

Construction on the new parking structure with solar panels has already commenced.

Additionally, several expansion projects for the casino resort are planned in the near future, including an additional hotel wing and an expanded casino floor.

The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria launched the $825m casino on its 254-acre reservation in 2013, featuring 3,000 slot machines, 144 blackjack, poker and baccarat tables, and multiple eateries.

A projected future extension of the casino floor will add around 144,000ft², 2,000 of the most recent slot machines, a new poker area, and a new high-limit zone.
