Project Potawatomi Hotel & Casino
Firekeeper
A new hotel caps a Milwaukee
casino

N
ative to the western Great Lakes, the Potawatomi people
are known as keepers of the fire. To reference that role,
a modern beacon now welcomes guests to the tribe's
new eponymous hotel. The entry flame consists of
energy-efficient light fixtures that can mix and morph to form
colorful patterns that nod to the changing seasons or announce
special events at the property.
For Minneapolis-based Cuningham Group Architecture
(CGA), the lantern not only added to the goal of an
environmentally focused project (it recently attained LEED
Gold status), it topped off a design brief that was "all about
entertainment and building guest anticipation before they
arrive," says principal and project manager John Culligan.
The $150 million, 381-room hotel is the latest in a series
of expansions for a two-decade-old complex, which is located
across a highway from downtown Milwaukee and includes a
casino. Realizing that it needed a hotel component to be a truly
regional destination resort, the tribe tapped CGA to design both
the new 19-story building, which connects to the three levels of
the existing casino via a glass curtain wall, and
its interiors.
