Best Hospitality Project 

Gilbane Building Company | Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia

With the construction of the Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia, Gilbane Building Company transformed the South Philadelphia Stadium District into a fully integrated sports, entertainment, and casino resort destination. The complex includes a 151,474-square-foot hotel; a 376,865-square-foot casino; 30,000 square feet of event space; and a 1,400-space parking garage. Featuring an undulating metal panel ribbon that wraps the casino and garage façades and a metal and glass hotel tower, the building design is intended to reflect the high energy of the amenities within and present dynamic architectural forms that complement the adjacent large-scale stadiums and arena.
