The Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center, a landmark $1.2 billion development constructed by a joint venture between McCarthy Building Companies and M.A. Mortenson, is now open and welcoming guests. Located along the San Diego Bay waterfront in Chula Vista, California, the impressive 22-story resort features 1,600 guest rooms with views of San Diego Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The development also includes a 275,000-square-foot convention center and a 1,600-space parking garage.

RediStair® played an important role in the construction of this major hospitality destination, supplying 122 precast concrete stair stringers for the resort's three primary egress stair towers. The RediStair® system provided permanent stair infrastructure while also serving as safe, efficient access to active construction levels and previously completed floors throughout the building process.

The project also demonstrated the installation efficiency of the RediStair® precast concrete stair system. With an estimated 12–15 man-hours per floor-to-floor assembly—including forming, setting stringers, installing reinforcement, and placing concrete at the intermediate landing—the system streamlined stair construction and supported project scheduling.

Today, the completed Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center stands as another example of how RediStair® delivers permanent concrete egress stairs that provide construction-phase access, efficient installation, and long-term durability for large-scale, multi-story developments.
