The Plaza Hotel and Casino – Pickleball Courts – Las Vegas Sun Article

The Las Vegas Sun recently highlighted a pickleball tournament The Plaza Hotel and Casino had at their new pickleball courts. As part of the renovation to the overall pool deck and court area, Breslin Builders’ scope included the installation of the pickleball courts.

The courts replaced traditional tennis courts (all but one) and allowed for The Plaza to have numerous courts for their tournament, as well as everyday use.  The roof top deck area originally has two full size tennis courts, a basketball court, and a hard surfaced volleyball court.  Breslin Builders cleaned the existing surfaces, fixed the numerous cracks in the deck area, rewaterproofed the area, and provided a new court surface and specific markings for each area.

This project is one of many unique and interesting projects Breslin Builders has completed over the 3+ decades of service in the Las Vegas valley.

The Plaza Pool Deck Renovation progress

Work is progressing on The Plaza Hotel and Casino’s Pool Deck Renovation, with removal of the existing topping slab, planters, old light bollards, and other existing items being removed to make way for the new pool, cabanas, patio areas, upgraded bar, and new deck areas.  In addition to the upgrades, Breslin Builders is also fixing various areas of the structural system and deck that required upgrades and changes due to the age and use of the structure.

Below are some progress photos of the work in progress:

The Plaza – Pool Deck Renovation Progressing

Work on the modernization and upgrades to The Plaza Hotel and Casino Pool Deck are well underway.  Breslin Builders is providing design-build services for the project.  Currently we are working on removing the existing concrete topping slabs, removing the old bar structures, the pool, and other items in preparation for the new and modernization work.  Additionally we are adjusting and fixing a few structural items to ensure the life of the deck area continues for well into the future.  Modernized and ADA accessible restrooms, bar, and a new pool are part of the project scope also.

In addition to the selective demolition work, Breslin Builders is working to obtain the needed City of Las Vegas renovation building permits for the balance of the work.  Given the age and uniqueness of the project, we are blending the new 2012 IBC code requirements with the original 1967 UBC requirements to come to an acceptable solution, ensuring both safety and sensibility are achieved.  The original pool portion of the structure was constructed in 1981.  Look for a summer 2016 opening.
