If you only take a look at the Hard Rock Casino Rockford construction site once every few weeks, the building would appear to be sprouting magically out of what was recently an empty 25-acre field.
The construction site is a hive of activity, much of it taking place inside what will be a 180,000-square-foot casino resort, and it’s only weeks away from being fully enclosed.
It is a complex project with more than 100 union trades workers on average there each day building walls, installing electrical conduit, laying pipe and pouring concrete among other tasks.
When done, more than 1,200 construction workers will have had a hand in building what is a complex, exacting and energy efficient building, Ringland-Johnson CEO Brent Johnson said.
