MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. - Fireworks marked the grand opening of Blue Chip Casino's new 22-story hotel tower, which it hopes will make it stand out among the area's gambling destinations.
The new hotel opened Jan. 22 in Michigan City. It cost $130 million to build and its 302 rooms join the 184 rooms in the original eight-story Blue Chip Tower.
The hotel overlooking Lake Michigan has a 1,200-seat theater, a luxury spa and new bars and restaurants.
