Demolition work is underway to take down the fire-ravaged Empress Casino in Chicago.
Demolition crews have begun tearing down the pavilion building, part of Chicago’s Empress Casino, that was destroyed in a recent fire. The casino, which sits on barges in the Des Plaines River and was untouched by the fire, is expected to reopen in late June. But it will take anywhere from a year or more to rebuild the pavilion building that houses restaurants and shops.
