Clark Construction Company

Clark Construction was the Construction Manager for this new 236,000 sq. ft., Las Vegas-style casino constructed on a 78-acre greenfield site at Exit 104 off of I-94 in Battle Creek. A 2,078-space precast parking deck provides parking for the 24/7 venue and is connected by a walkway. The casino features 2,682 slot machines, 78 table games, poker room and the Auraro VIP Lounge.

Elements of nature are included within the projects' interior including fire, water, earth and wind; fire is one of the focal themes of the casino's theming. Architecture could be said to be in motion at FireKeepers Casino and specialty lighting adds to this apparent effect of movement throughout the space.

It houses a 2,000 seat Event Center with capabilities to convert to a Banquet Center to accommodate 1,500 people.
