History
The Cannery was initially set for a mid-December 2002 opening. By October 2002, more than 5,000 people had been interviewed for nearly 1,000 job positions at the Cannery. That month, the opening was delayed to early January 2003. The delay allowed the owners to save $90,000 in taxes and fees, and also simplified the Cannery's job search. Prior to its opening, Cannery executives chose not to affiliate the hotel with a brand name, which was deemed as expensive and unnecessary.
The Cannery opened on January 2, 2003, with 201 rooms and a 50,000 square feet (4,600 m2) casino. The Cannery is known for its 120-foot smokestack.
In May 2004, the Cannery received final approval for a $35 million expansion project. The expansion took place in 2006, and added 125,000 square feet (11,600 m2) and a 3,571-seat Galaxy Movie Theater. Other additions include a parking garage and new poker room.
The property became part of Boyd Gaming in December 2016 through its acquisition of Cannery Casino Resorts.
