Construction crews and Suffolk Regional Off-Track Betting Corporation officials celebrated a milestone last week in the $210 million expansion project at Jake’s 58 Casino Hotel.
Ronkonkoma-based Aurora Contractors, the project’s general contractor, and Islip-based J.C. Steel Erectors, the project’s steel erection subcontractor celebrated the topping-off of the construction of the casino’s new 110,500-square-foot building.
“Through the collective efforts of Aurora Contractors, Aurora’s subcontractors, Jake’s 58, SROTB, DevCon Solutions and the design professionals, we’ve been able to reach this important milestone in the project,” said Bryan McKiernan, project executive for Aurora Contractors. “The raising of the beam is representative of the teamwork, cooperation, constant effort required to keep a high-profile landmark project such as this a success.”
