According to Penta, the 25-story tower will have a porte-cochere entry opening into a lobby adjacent to several retail stores, a 3,000-sf Chart House restaurant and slot machine banks, according to the general contractor, Penta Building Group. Above that will be a pool deck that will tie into the existing pool's upper deck, above the live shark aquarium, and then three levels of parking topped by 524 guest rooms. The top floor will be the owner's suite.

GlobeSt.com reported the news Wednesday morning , surprising Golden Nugget officials who hadn't approved the release of that level of project detail. Penta issued a self-deprecating statement this morning saying the information may be erroneous. A Golden Nugget spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request to identify which details, if any, are inaccurate as opposed to not formally approved for release.

"Details of the project were released prematurely without approval of Golden Nugget officials, and the content [was]…all based on unapproved construction specifics, and represented the new project in a miscalculated and unofficial manner," Penta said in a statement. "The Golden Nugget plans to formally release the finalized tower specifics once all plans are finalized and approved. Until that time, all previously released information from any source other than official Golden Nugget spokespersons should be discounted and considered unapproved and unofficial construction information."
