在3月份的棕榈赌场度假村的翻新，并覆盖了度假村的每个地区。逐步的工作计划允许设施在整个建筑中保持开放。78,000-SQ-FT赌场装修包括一间新的高限房，主赌场笼，球员奖励中心和度假酒店前台的重新装修，办理入住手续区域。棕榈树现在拥有七家全服务餐厅，设有新的中心酒吧。船员将外部与景观绿化和一个扩大的两层停车设施一起修改，顶部有一天俱乐部。
The soil surrounding the resort’s pool was unsuitable for the loads associated with the entertainment club renovations. Rather than removing, replacing and recompacting 30 ft of existing soils down to the caliche layer, the team chose compaction grout to minimize disturbances to facility operations. The process involved 26,000 linear ft of drilling and 70,000 cu ft of compaction grout on a 6-ft grid. The grout stabilized the soil from the caliche layer to the pool elevation.
In order to build the new day club above the garage, the structure had to be retrofitted to support additional weight. Since adding columns would interfere with parking availability, crews reinforced the existing structural beams with steel plates. The project team developed a customized bolt pattern for the steel connection points into the post-tensioned steel cables after a laser-scanning process identified cable locations. Carbon-fiber fabric was used in conjunction with the steel plates. The fiber was wrapped around each beam and coated with an epoxy resin.
作为改造的一部分，还包括一个以13英尺虎鲨为特色的一件艺术。它坐落在度假村的新大堂未知酒吧的中心。来自英国艺术家Damien Hirst的工作包括一个由澳大利亚渔民捕获的实际鲨鱼，被切入三个部分。它保存在三个钢玻璃罐中，并保存在甲醛中。
McCarthy Building Cos. took on a design-build role to install the $12-million feature and its additional containment system, which included plumbing, sensors, coatings and grate structures.
