So, we tried to do our part by ensuring that we were assisting the local economy by keeping those various industries employed. During COVID, we did a lot of construction here at our property, which kept our main general contractor, Jaynes Corp., and all of their subcontractors gainfully employed as well. Paisano continued: 'I would like to emphasize the pueblo's reinvestment in the local economy. A newly-erected rectangular bar has plenty of seating and offers amenities such as charging stations for cellphones and convenient hooks for purses and bags. Floor-to-ceiling windows surround Bien Shur's lounge area and dining room. The darker color schemes have been replaced with lighter, brighter décor, carpeting, paint, and tile. In addition to the new wing, more construction took place at other locations on the property including Bien Shur Rooftop Restaurant & Lounge and the hotel. And a sportsbook, our sports betting will be one of them.' So we'll be adding some additional gaming attractions through our property. Our management team has done a great job to get us to this point. Paisano continued: 'We do not have a sportsbook yet. We started construction and then COVID hit.' So that was always the plan with the expansion that had been in development since 2019. And then our new sports bar is located on the third floor. So, part of that area, we enhanced our HVAC units to provide more clean air on the south side of the casino so that our customers can enjoy a fresher environment, so to speak. The second floor is not occupied right now. Stuart Paisano stated: 'The plan was always to add additional gaming space.
