CQ Holdings owns the Hollywood Casino Baton Rouge and Belle of Baton Rogue. The company recently purchased the Belle. Next month, CQ will ask the Louisiana Gaming Control Board if the casino can move to land.

Hollywood Casino in Baton Rouge is moving forward with its expansion plans. The new Hollywood will feature a sportsbook by DraftKings and a Shaquille O'Neal Big Chicken restaurant. It took longer than expected to complete the pilings needed for the dockside expansion of the casino. Once the expansion is complete, CQ Holding Company will consider adding a hotel to the property.

CQ Holdings wants to move the Belle of Baton Rouge to land. The company will ask the Louisiana Gaming Control Board to approve the plans next month. CQ wants the new boutique-style casino to be operational within 11 to 15 months. It is expected that the overall changes to the casino will cost anywhere from $21 to $25 million.
