Sandia Pueblo in New Mexico debuted a four-level, 1,700-space parking garage at its casino.

The garage boosts the total number of spaces at the Sandia Resort & Casino to about 4,000, The Albuquerque Journal reported. It took 15 months and 600 workers to build it at an undisclosed cost, the paper said.

Stuart Paisano, a former governor, told the paper that “the economic impact to the local economy was pretty large.”

The garage is part of a multi-phase expansion at the casino. A new spa and a golf event center are due to open in the next few months, the paper said.
