The Earth Tower, Hotel tower at Mohegan Sun casino in Uncasville, United States
The Earth Tower is a 400-room hotel building at the Mohegan Sun casino in Uncasville, Connecticut, with 39 suites and 242,000 square feet (22,500 m2) of space. It was designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and built by A/Z Corporation, opening on November 18, 2016. The tower has a pool, a spa, and a fitness center, and is connected to the Casino of the Earth and to the Sky Tower lobby by a hallway.
Kohn Pedersen Fox was commissioned in 1995 to design a hotel based on its 1,200-room Sky Tower, but the project stalled until Mohegan Sun announced plans in 2008. The Great Recession delayed it further, and A/Z Corporation broke ground in March 2015. The Earth Tower opened on November 18, 2016.
The Earth Tower, owned by the Mohegan Indian Tribe, connects directly to the Casino of the Earth through an interior passage system.
The Earth Tower connects to the Casino of the Earth, and a hallway links it to the Sky Tower lobby, so guests can reach the resort's casinos without going outside. Bean and Vine Cafe & Wine Bar is the only dining option inside the tower. The pool, spa and fitness center are in the building, and gas fire pits sit outside.
