The project is supported on nearly fifty steel piles giving patrons the feeling that they are floating on the river providing a real connection to the site often overlooked in typical casino designs.

Using rustic materials and local vernacular the design team collaborated with the Natchez Historical Society to recreate an early 20th century cedar mill that was located here nearly a century ago. A municipal pedestrian river walk winds itself around the building’s riverside perimeter providing access to the casino’s “Back-Porch” amenities complete with a fire pit and stunning views of the Mississippi and her majestic sunsets.

Playing on the design elements from this era such as flat or hipped roofs with broad overhanging eaves, windows grouped in horizontal bands, and horizontal lines that meld the building with the prairie landscape, the design evokes a sense of place and regional heritage.

The contemporary building vernacular, lighting systems, color palette and materials used bring excitement to the corporate masterplanned business park.

The design approach was centered around the idea of how pizzas are traditionally prepared and cooked. Wood elements were used on the walls around the bar to relate to the wood used in the ovens while metal elements relate to the iron grills used for barbecuing. Lastly, faux stone walls (inside and out) reminisce the old stone ovens that were historically used to cook pizza.
