Bally’s notched a win Wednesday as the firm secured final Chicago City Council zoning approval to build a $1.7 billion casino on the 30-acre Tribune Publishing Center site in River West.
Though the council approved an ordinance and community agreement for the casino in May, the project had to go back through the zoning committee due to changes to the original plan.

The vote was 39-5, with one alderman recusing and two absent and three recorded as not voting.

The casino still needs approval from the Illinois Gaming Board.
