As Hard Rock’s 2012 Project Development Partner of the Year, SOSH Architects, in collaboration with Richard L. Bowen & Associates, was the clear choice to design the entertainment company’s first gaming property to be branded a “Rocksino.”
The 155,000 square foot standalone facility was built adjacent to Northfield Park’s grandstand to vastly expand guests’ entertainment options. Venues within the all-new Rocksino include a gaming floor boasting 2,300 slot machines, a 2,000-seat music hall, a buffet, steakhouse, and bistro.
To establish and convey Hard Rock’s Rocksino image, SOSH incorporated timeless yet contemporary design elements for a Hard Rock Cafe and casino center bar, a high limit slot room, and multiple outdoor gaming rooms and smoking areas.
