COMMERCIAL: HOSPITALITY/CASINO

This project involved relocating the existing Sportsbook and creating a new Bingo space. The installation of a storefront system to close off the area for certain days of the week. New flooring, casework, and electrical created a welcoming space for new and seasonal players alike.

Working in a fully occupied four-story medical building, the Lepori team installed new finishes in the common area lobbies, corridors and restrooms of each floor working off-hours and weekends as needed to ensure work did not impact tenants. Tasks consisted of full flooring replacement, upgrades to all lighting fixtures, replacement of acoustical ceiling tiles, painting and installation of new wall covering to existing elevator walls. The main stairway corridor was also stripped to the existing concrete and steel structure where the concrete was then stained, and the metal components painted.

Ranch vernacular architecture includes a sprawling elevation featuring multiple pitched roofs and a blend of siding, including stone cladding, board and batten, and composite cladding. It has some standing seam metal roofing, barn doors, porch structures, and multiple trellises and shade structures.

To avoid the time and expense of redesign, the Lepori team rebooted 2008 drawings for Hobey’s expansion. We bridged the old design with advances in technology and materials. We collaborated with subcontractors to use LED lighting, efficient equipment, and bold finishes.

The phased work includes demolition of an aging hotel, moving the property’s generator to a new enclosure, and building 7,500 sq ft of newly finished space, including gaming, dining, count room, kitchen, dishwashing, cooler, lounge, restrooms, and storage. It also includes remodeling an existing 2,500 sq ft of the existing gaming space.

The Lepori team is completely renovating floors seven through 17 in the downtown Reno property while the building remains operational. Work includes installing all-new finishes at the elevator lobby and corridors as well as the complete renovation of all guest rooms. Room highlights include adding a kitchenette and all new finishes.
