LAS VEGAS-Dick Corp. will build Pinnacle Las Vegas, the 1,100-unit, $740-million condominium-resort project adjacent to the Orleans hotel, casino and arena. The Pittsburgh-based contractor says its Honolulu-based subsidiary Dick Pacific Construction will assume responsibility for all day-to-day activities of the project, which is nearing the start of construction.

Dick Corp. served as the frame contractor for the Venetian resort, performing all concrete foundation and structure work for the $2-billion complex. It also served as a prime contractor for the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas, constructing among other things the bridge that links the two towers. The bridge was the inspiration for the four bridges that will connect the two 36-story towers anchoring Pinnacle Las Vegas.

The developer and landowner is the Falcon Group. The partnership includes the Falconi Group, Praxis Resources Inc. and Las Vegas-based Elysium Enterprises. Falconi Group and Praxis are real estate development companies based in Pennsylvania. Falconi is led by Angelo Falconi, who owns shopping malls, auto dealerships and a piece of the Pittsburgh Penguins. Elysium Enterprises is led by Mike Bellon, a locally based entrepreneur and real estate developer who made his mark buying, developing and selling auto dealerships.
