三月份包裹的棕榈赌场度假村的翻新工程覆盖了度假村的几乎每个区域。分阶段的工作时间表使该设施在整个施工过程中保持开放。78,000平方英尺的赌场翻新工程包括一个新的高限制房间，主赌场笼子，玩家奖励中心以及度假胜地的酒店前台和入住区域的改建。手掌现在设有七个全方位服务的餐厅以及一个新的中心酒吧。工作人员用美化环境改造了外观，并在顶部设有日间俱乐部扩大了两层楼的停车设施。
The soil surrounding the resort’s pool was unsuitable for the loads associated with the entertainment club renovations. Rather than removing, replacing and recompacting 30 ft of existing soils down to the caliche layer, the team chose compaction grout to minimize disturbances to facility operations. The process involved 26,000 linear ft of drilling and 70,000 cu ft of compaction grout on a 6-ft grid. The grout stabilized the soil from the caliche layer to the pool elevation.
In order to build the new day club above the garage, the structure had to be retrofitted to support additional weight. Since adding columns would interfere with parking availability, crews reinforced the existing structural beams with steel plates. The project team developed a customized bolt pattern for the steel connection points into the post-tensioned steel cables after a laser-scanning process identified cable locations. Carbon-fiber fabric was used in conjunction with the steel plates. The fiber was wrapped around each beam and coated with an epoxy resin.
作为翻新工程的一部分，还包括一件艺术品，上面有13英尺的老虎鲨鱼。它位于度假村新大厅中未知酒吧的中心。英国艺术家达米安·赫斯特（Damien Hirst）的作品包括一条实际的鲨鱼，被澳大利亚的一名渔夫捕获，分为三个部分。它保存在三个部分的钢和玻璃罐中，并保存在甲醛中。
McCarthy Building Cos. took on a design-build role to install the $12-million feature and its additional containment system, which included plumbing, sensors, coatings and grate structures.
