Construction of the Great Wolf Lodge Arizona, the first indoor water park in the state, utilized tilt-up construction to build the water slide tower, unlike many of the other Great Wolf Lodges across the nation.
Tilt-up construction creates a faster and safer process for workers and has enabled the project to move forward efficiently from concept to operation. Recently, the first slide tower frame panels were lifted into place as the project continues on schedule toward an August 2019 completion date.
Mortenson is working with Suntec Concrete, Gensler, and the erection engineer to utilize this innovative construction method – in lieu of cast-in place construction – as it has been done on previous Great Wolf Lodge projects. Great Wolf Lodge Arizona will be located at 7333 N. Pima Rd., Scottsdale.
