Argosy Casino will remain closed for four the next days while undergoing renovations and will reopen at the end of the week with a new look, and a new name.

The casino is getting a $335 million facelift as the owners plan to switch the casino operations to a newer riverboat that's the size of two football fields.

Workers will spend the week moving slot machines and putting the final touches on the new riverboat.

Argosy will reopen Friday morning under a new name: "Hollywood Casino."

Casino may soon go Hollywood

About: Bogart's Grille
“if you want a nice setting and good service i would suggest going someplace else. if you want to pay 3 times what the food and service are worth go here. took over an hour to get our salad, almost 2 hour before our dinners came. orders weren't correct. waitress was nice but doesn't make up for all the mistakes. ”
