Casino Arizona at Talking Stick

Casino Arizona at Talking Stick was designed in such a way that it would reflect the natural surroundings that have been inhabited by the Pima and Maricopa Native American tribes for thousands of years. The designers were seeking to preserve the appearance of this environment while also providing an entertainment venue that would endure the elements for many years to come.

Hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) ensures low maintenance costs without sacrificing the performance of the structural steel.

The utilization of hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) ensures low maintenance costs without sacrificing the performance of the structural steel. HDG offers the durability of a surface harder than the substrate steel, and the alloy layers inherent to HDG provide three forms of corrosion protection. Aside from the aspects of protecting this immense investment, the aesthetic appearance of zinc, both while freshly galvanized as well as when weathered, blend well with the rugged, primitive aura so characteristic of the Western United States. No other coating would have provided the appearance, cost-efficiency or performance of HDG.
