The Palms on the west side of the Strip underwent a $690 million renovation that wrapped up more than 10 months before the shutdown. On June 4, casinos statewide could reopen, but those four stayed shut. Last March, the state shut down all nonessential businesses, including casinos, for 78 days to help stop the spread of COVID 19. Four casinos owned by Station Casinos remain closed, and now CEO Frank Fertitta III says the Palms, Texas Station, Fiesta Henderson, and Fiesta Rancho will remain closed until tourism returns.
