Potawatomi Hotel & Casino

Casino in 2015

Potawatomi Hotel & Casino, formerly Potawatomi Bingo Casino, is an Indian casino in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, owned and operated by the Forest County Potawatomi Community. It first opened its doors March 7, 1991. Located on Canal Street in the Menomonee Valley near Downtown Milwaukee, this casino offers a variety of entertainment options, including a 20-table poker room, four restaurants, a food court (with several vendors/small restaurants), the Northern Lights Theater, the Sky Lodge (a smoke-free casino), and a small two-tiered theater that combines entertainment and dining.

The casino underwent an expansion that was completed in the summer of 2008, expanding the number of table games to 60 and slot machines to over 3,000. The hotel is finished, and now stands at 18 stories high with the 13th floor missing as the number 13 is considered unlucky. After it was completed, it was the tallest building in the city south of Interstate 94.[1]
