At the Multi-Tainment center at Harrah’s Cherokee, you’ll likely notice some big changes to the exterior of the building. June brought completion of the roof system and the beginnings of metal panel cornice around the roof’s perimeter.
What cannot be seen from the outside of the building, however, is the advanced stage of the interior work. The flooring contractor is working to install all flooring in both the upstairs and downstairs kitchen in preparation for the majority of impending equipment deliveries later this month. So far, the kitchen walk-in coolers are already in place on the north side of the building. Painters are also working to prime and first coat the walls.
A significant milestone in the interior construction is, of course, the installation of bowling lanes and equipment. In June, the specialty contractors completed all subsurface work and mounted all bowling equipment, putting this process ahead of schedule. Now, the contractors are taking the final steps in installing the lanes.
With the new facility housing two elevators, the crews are nearing completion of the kitchen elevator and are almost halfway through with the public transportation elevator.
July will be another busy month for the construction teams as they prepare for the arrival of kitchen equipment, casework for the bars, the stage as well as framing for booth seating for the new restaurant. In addition to the evolution of the interior, July will also bring more finishing touches to the exterior.
