The Wind Creek Casino in Wetumpka, AL, is the second luxury casino hotel completed by American Tile and Marble of Shreveport, LA, for PCI Gaming Authority. With a compressed construction schedule and a round-the-clock, high-traffic business model to support, the specification team on the job chose a complete system of professional-quality underlayments, membranes, mortars and grouts from Custom Building Products of Seal Beach, CA, to set a wide array of glass and ceramic tile throughout the project.

The Wind Creek complex totals 512,000 square feet with over 110,000 square feet of tiled surfaces. The property is the largest casino in Alabama, and it is owned by the Poarch Band of Creek Indians — the only federally recognized tribe in the state. The casino offers a Las Vegas-style atmosphere with dramatic lighting, over 2,500 gaming machines and a raised center bar that boasts a 16,000-gallon shark tank.
