MGM Resorts International said enhancements to its planned casino in Springfield, Massachusetts, will increase the projected cost to $950 million from $860 million previously.

The changes include a child-care facility and expanded retail space, the Las Vegas-based company said Wednesday in a statement. Plans for a redesign were announced earlier, when MGM Springfield said it was moving a 250-room hotel and apartments off site.
