The Cordish Companies and Caesars Unveils Plans for 223-Acre Mixed-Use Residential Development in South Florida Market

POMPANO BEACH, FL – The Cordish Companies and Caesars Entertainment announced their Pompano Beach development, The Pomp, will be anchored by a dynamic Live! dining and entertainment district. Located 35 miles north of Miami and less than 10 miles north of Fort Lauderdale, the 223-acre project is one of the largest developments in South Florida. Once complete, The Pomp will bring together entertainment, dining, hotel, retail, residential, office and lifestyle amenities, alongside the successful Harrah’s Pompano Beach casino, in one world-class destination.
“It’s incredibly exciting for The Cordish Companies to continue advancing this game-changing project with our partners at Caesars Entertainment,” said Blake Cordish, Principal of The Cordish Companies. “The Pomp represents one of the most dynamic opportunities for placemaking in the United States. There is no comparable development in South Florida that combines casino gaming with best-in-class entertainment, retail, dining, hotel, residential, office and lifestyle amenities into one dynamic destination. With Live! as an anchor, we are making a high-energy dining and entertainment hub that will attract millions of new visitors from across the region and beyond.”
The development’s name, The Pomp, honors the local history and pays homage to the beloved former Pompano Park racetrack located on the project site. With the newly remodeled and rebranded Harrah’s Pompano Beach and Live! entertainment anchor at its core, The Pomp will feature 1.3 million square feet of retail and entertainment space, 4,000 luxury residential units, two hotels and 1.35 million square feet of Class A office space upon completion.
“We are completely reimagining what this area of South Florida looks like for residents and visitors to Pompano Beachwith The Pomp and Live! through our partnership with The Cordish Companies,” said Anthony Carano, President and COO of Caesars Entertainment. “Building off the success of our newly remodeled and rebranded Harrah’s Pompano Beach casino, we are committed to delivering a one-of-a-kind entertainment and lifestyle destination, unlike anything in South Florida, that will provide the best in gaming, world-class amenities and attract new visitors to the dynamic area.”
For over a century, The Cordish Companies has made and managed an extraordinary portfolio of upscale mixed-use, entertainment and casino resort destinations throughout the United States. Its Live! brand, which will anchor the development’s entertainment and dining component as Live! at The Pomp, is regarded as one of the premier entertainment brands in the U.S., welcoming over 55 million visitors each year to its dining, entertainment, hotel, casino resort and music venues across the country. For over two decades, Live! has dramatically changed the entertainment experience, making one-of-a kind destinations that offer a curated year-round calendar of special events, premier dining venues, first-class hospitality, and the best of local, regional and national entertainment.
“The City of Pompano Beach is delighted to have Caesars and Cordish partner on this incredible project,” said Pompano Beach Mayor Rex Hardin. “Caesars is known for their energetic gaming destinations, and Cordish has a successful track record of developing and operating dynamic mixed-use properties that spur community revitalization. The Pomp and Live! will not only attract millions of visitors to our city annually, it will also make thousands of jobs for Pompano Beachand South Florida residents, leaving a lasting positive impact on our city and region.”
Encompassing multiple dining concepts, Live! at The Pomp will showcase over 25,000 square feet of premier food and beverage venues including nationally acclaimed concepts Sports & Social and PBR Cowboy Bar.

The bar’s beverage program includes creative craft cocktails, specialty drinks, and an extensive line-up of brews on tap.
Born from the toughest sport on dirt, the iconic PBR Cowboy Bar lives up to its legendary namesake, Professional Bull Riders, which embodies toughness, determination, and a right spirit of independence. PBR Cowboy Bars fuse that spirit with first-class hospitality, bringing an authentic country western experience that marries an electric combination of “cowboy cool” and huge-time entertainment. The 7,000-square-foot venue will offer high-energy music, expansive bars, private VIP tables, industry-leading sound and lighting, and a mechanical bull.
