The Pascua Yaqui Tribe and Casino Del Sol’s new hotel, under construction, has reached a significant milestone. The final steel beam has been placed on top of the new hotel, marking the halfway point in the construction process and signifying the completion of the structural phase of construction.

“Reaching this significant milestone is something we’ve been looking forward to, and we wouldn’t be in the home stretch without the team’s hard work,” said CEO of Casino Del Sol, Kimberly Van Amburg. “The signatures on the beam of all who helped make this happen will now be a permanent part of the hotel structure.”
