The partners that collaborated on the development of the Ilani Casino and resort announced during a press conference the formation of an investment group for expanding the facility to include a 14-story, 300-room hotel. The casino’s hotel will accommodate additional space for gaming.

As the development company, the Cowlitz Indian Tribe announced the casino will receive exterior and interior updates, as well as the opening of two new restaurants. The hotel project comes on the heels of the completion of a 2,500-seat meeting and entertainment center that competes with similar dual-purpose facilities located in greater Portland, Oregon.

After the hotel opens, along with the new restaurants and additional gaming space, the Ilani property will exceed 400,000 square feet. The gaming space alone covers more than 100,000 square feet, with 17 table games and 2,500 slot machines.

As an independent contractor, Conco Companies provides shotcrete, concrete formwork, concrete pumping, concrete trucking, and concrete reinforcement services for the Ilani Casino Hotel project. Our ability to work safely and efficiently on large-scale projects helped Conco Companies receive the contract for the concrete phase of the construction project. Conco Companies has developed a reputation for rapidly adapting to the changes made for fast-paced projects such as the Ilani Casino Hotel. We started on the project in July 2021, with an expected completion date to be sometime during April of 2022.

In mid-June 2021, the Conco Companies began full concrete services on the Modera Morrison project in Portland, a 36,000 SF footprint with two levels of below-grade parking and four elevated decks totaling nearly 120,000 SF. It will be a mixed-use apartment community between the Morrison and Belmont neighborhoods, providing studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes with private balconies.

Modera Morrison is designed by SERA and developed by Mill Creek Residential Trust, with KPFF as the structural engineer and Conco as the concrete services provider. Conco was selected for our expertise and exceptional turnkey concrete services and for being one of the top commercial concrete contractors in Portland. We previously worked with the Mill Creek team to finish the Modera Akoya project on time and under budget, and look forward to completing our next collaboration in Mid-December 2021.
