Resort to expand

Monday, Nov. 3, 2003 | 11:18 a.m.

The Rio hotel-casino in Las Vegas plans to break ground early next year on a $31 million expansion of its Pavilion Convention Center. The expansion will add 60,000 square feet of space to the existing 100,000 square feet in the pavilion. It is expected to be complete by the end of next year.

The new space will be designed to provide flexibility for groups that want larger rooms as well as smaller break-out rooms, said Michael Massari, executive director of Pavilion sales and operations for the Rio.

"We are committed to growing this valuable market segment, which will both generate new business for the Rio and boost tourism in Las Vegas, Massari said.
