The final steel beam for Muckleshoot Casino’s resort tower was hoisted into place on Friday, Aug. 26, in Auburn, Washington.
The 1,000-pound, 25-foot-long beam, adorned with the signatures of Muckleshoot Indian Tribal members, as well as the men and women who built the 18-story structure, glided into place accompanied with a splash of fireworks. Hundreds of onlookers, from tribal leadership and casino executives to community partners and construction workers, witnessed the milestone which included a blessing and cultural dance of celebration.
The glass tower — which will boast approximately 400 guestrooms, expanded gaming, an indoor pool, spa services and a rooftop steakhouse among its amenities — will be the pinnacle of an exciting multi-phase evolution for the casino. Earlier phases added a 20,000-square-foot technologically advanced events center, a trio of fast-casual dining destinations, a high-energy center bar, increased smoke-free gaming and, most recently, Caesars Sportsbook at Muckleshoot.
The casino will have 157,000 square feet of continuous gaming, 29,000 total square feet of event space, almost a dozen dining choices, and more.
The project is set to be completed fall 2023.
