The hotel, expected to open in late 2002, is part of the Pearl River Resort, which will represent a nearly $750 million family holiday destination in Meshova County.
Designed by Miami-based Arquitectonica, the Golden Gate will be a classic floating structure that starts low at one end, winds around the casino area, and gradually peaks with a moonlit sphere at 310 feet high. A cascading water curtain will surround the building's outer base.
The building will rise 30 stories above the Mississippi landscape, covering approximately 840,000 square feet, with 572 guest rooms, health spas, restaurants, bars and other entertainment options. The 90,000-square-foot casino floor will offer 24-hour Las Vegas-style games, including the latest slots, table games, and poker.
Slidell's Baker Concrete, located in L.A., is responsible for approximately 30,000 cubic yards of concrete needed to complete the superstructure. The high slabs will be poured over about 9 to 10 months and will require 3,700 trucks of cement. Baker will use sophisticated laser technology to ensure that each 8-inch thick slab is flat.
The Pearl River Resort, developed only by Indian reservations, will be a world-class gaming and entertainment destination with deluxe accommodation, Las Vegas-style gaming, exciting shows and attractions, recreational lakes, award-winning golf and a wide range of resort services.
Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians owns and operates a portfolio of 15 manufacturing, service, retail, and tourism companies, whose success promotes members' self-reliance and remarkable growth while providing an economic boost to the communities surrounding the reservation. 온라인카지노
