Introducing ‘The Pomp’: Harrah’s Pompano Beach Reveals Ambitious 223-Acre Development Project
Undergoing a significant transformation, Harrah’s Pompano Beach, formerly Isle Casino Pompano Park, is expanding after its rebranding by Caesars Entertainment. The property, located 35 miles north of Miami, recently underwent a rebranding and revitalization by Caesars, featuring 1,500 slot machines and a renowned 40-table WSOP poker room. Ceasing live racing due to national trends, Caesars plans to reshape the historic venue in collaboration with The Cordish Companies, turning the 223-acre property into ‘The Pomp,’ a premier casino, resort, and mixed-use destination.
The Cordish Companies, renowned for its Live!-branded entertainment districts like Texas Live! and Xfinity Live! in Philadelphia, is extending its reach to Pompano Beach. Partnering with Caesars Entertainment, they’ve unveiled plans for ‘The Pomp,’ a groundbreaking mixed-use development at Harrah’s Pompano Beach. This ambitious project will feature two hotels, a variety of dining and entertainment options, retail and office spaces, and a total of 4,000 luxury residential units.
According to Blake Cordish, principal of The Cordish Companies, “The Pomp represents one of the most dynamic opportunities for placemaking in the United States.” The development integrates casino gaming with top-tier entertainment, retail, dining, hotels, residences, offices, and lifestyle amenities, creating a unique destination. The name ‘The Pomp’ pays homage to the area’s history, once associated with a horse racetrack.
Spanning over 1.3 million square feet of retail and entertainment space and 1.35 million square feet of Class A office space, The Pomp will be developed in multiple phases over several years. Cordish plans to introduce its Sports & Social restaurant and the popular PBR Cowboy Bar, alongside a state-of-the-art Topgolf venue featuring 102 outdoor climate-controlled hitting bays, set to open later this year.
While specific budget details and completion timelines are yet to be disclosed, The Cordish Companies have a strong presence in Florida, having previously collaborated on the construction of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood and the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa with the Seminole Tribe.
