MGM MIRAGE CityCenter

Construction Update

January 2008

Construction at CityCenter is advancing on schedule. Currently the site sports 16 cranes and round-the-clock activity. The individual buildings are beginning to take shape, and the enormity of the CityCenter project is becoming evident from the Las Vegas Strip. Here are some highlights of the construction process:

  • Veer Towers, The Harmon, Mandarin Oriental and the retail and entertainment district are coming together as a true neighborhood, presaging the contemporary urban cityscape to come.

  • The Vdara Condo Hotel, at level 34, is rising quickly. The spacious lobby with its vibrant central lounge and water feature is taking shape.

  • Installation has begun on Mandarin Oriental's exterior curtain wall, sheathing the structure, now up to level 19, in a dynamic interplay of glass, metal and light. Once this "skin" is installed, they will begin finishing out the building's interiors.

  • The Harmon Hotel, Spa & Residences is coming out of the ground. With its slender, rounded footprint and prime location just steps off Las Vegas Boulevard, this tower will command The Strip like nothing else. The Harmon has been awarded membership in The Leading Hotels of the World®, recognition based on its premier Strip address and also its services, finishes and amenities that are notably exceptional, even among this rare set of luxury boutique hotels.

    The structural steel for Daniel Libeskind's retail and entertainment district is rising quickly. Although a skeleton, you can easily read the crystalline shapes that will house one of the world's finest collections of shops and restaurants with twisting, tilting exterior walls clad in shimmering panels of stainless steel.

CityCenter's vision has been recognized by worldwide leaders in hospitality. In a recent interview, Jim Murren, President and COO of MGM MIRAGE, affirmed that CityCenter "has to be in the top five of development projects in the world right now. Anyone who is involved in hospitality worldwide, whether it's in the Middle East, Asia, Europe or North America knows about CityCenter. They're intrigued about its urban planning. They're captivated by the roster of architects that we've hired and they're very impressed by the ambition of it." (See more construction photos below.)
