Relationship with SOSH Architects
This award builds upon our 25-year relationship with Construction Manager Roy Anderson Corp. (a Tutor Perini Company), and the 20-year relationship with SOSH Architects. This team successfully completed the Scarlet Pearl Casino Resort project in D’Iberville, MS in 2015.
They are excited to build again with the same core group, which also includes M/E Engineers. This project also has to work alongside Delaware North Companies (DNC), which is one of the largest hospitality developers in the United States; also adds to their long history of major projects in the Gaming and Hospitality market.
