Dual Project Spotlight — Upstate New York

One Door, Two Finishes

For two Oneida Indian Nation casino hotels, global architecture firm Gensler chose the same VIGO door — the frameless sliding Caspian — and split it down the middle: matte brushed gold at Turning Stone's Crescent Hotel, custom matte black at Point Place Casino. A study in how one product carries two design stories.

Quick answer

Two Oneida Indian Nation casino hotels in Upstate New York use the VIGO Caspian frameless sliding shower door. Turning Stone's Crescent Hotel (Verona, NY) received a custom matte brushed gold Caspian; Point Place Casino (Bridgeport, NY) received a custom matte black Caspian with a 3-inch bottom door guide. Both were specified by Gensler and built by general contractor Hayner Hoyt.

The Brief

Why specify the same door for two different casinos?

Because consistency is an asset in hospitality construction. When one owner (the Oneida Indian Nation), one architect (Gensler), and one general contractor (Hayner Hoyt) are delivering multiple properties, a single proven door platform means one set of installation details, one spare-parts inventory, and one predictable result — while finish does the work of giving each property its own identity. The VIGO Caspian was the platform; matte gold and matte black were the two stories.

The Product

What is the VIGO Caspian frameless sliding shower door?

The VIGO Caspian is a frameless sliding (bypass) shower door built on 3/8-inch clear tempered glass with 304 stainless-steel hardware. Its slim sliding mechanism glides quietly, the design accommodates out-of-plumb walls, and it ships in a range of finishes — which is exactly why it could become the shared backbone for both casino projects.

  • 023/8-inch tempered glass10 mm safety glass meeting ANSI Z97.1 and 16 CFR 1201, for durability under constant guest use.

  • 04Built to be customizedCustom sizes, finishes and details — like Point Place's 3-inch bottom door guide — without leaving the platform.

Why It Works

What does this mean for designers and developers?

It is a template for multi-property programs. Specify one VIGO door platform, then vary finish and a few custom details per property to give each its own identity. You get design flexibility at the room level and operational simplicity at the portfolio level — the combination hospitality groups, casino operators and multifamily developers are after.
