(Kings Mountain).- On Monday, the Catawba Two Kings Casino in Kings Mountain marked a significant achievement in one of North Carolina’s biggest construction undertakings, as workers installed the final beam on the $1 billion project.
A major milestone in one of North Carolina’s largest construction projects, the Catawba Two Kings Casino in Kings Mountain, was celebrated Monday as crews placed the final beam atop the $1 billion development.
Despite rainy skies, dozens gathered to witness the topping-off ceremony, marking the completion of the building’s structural framework. For the Catawba Nation, it was more than just a construction achievement, it was a historic moment.
“We are witnessing something far greater than a construction process,” Catawba Nation Chief Brian Harris said. “We are witnessing a moment in our people’s history.”
With the structure now complete, crews will begin preparing the interior, installing 1,350 slot machines, 22 table games, a restaurant and bar as part of the project’s first phase. That section is expected to open in spring 2026, replacing the temporary casino currently operating nearby.
The main complex, scheduled to open in spring 2027, will span nearly 2 million square feet and include 4,300 slot machines, 100 table games, multiple restaurants and bars and a hotel.
Harris said the project will transform Kings Mountain’s economy and spark development well beyond the casino grounds.
“I don’t think the community can even fathom the economic development growth that will happen here,” Harris said. “All of that will provide an economic engine that will spring up hotels, businesses, and restaurants.”
Once fully operational, the casino is expected to employ roughly 2,200 people, including both Catawba Nation citizens and local residents.
For the Catawba Nation, the moment represents progress, not just in construction, but in community building and cultural preservation.
