Green Giant/7.4 Billion dollars CityCenter Takes Shape

摘要

Project CityCenter is as big as they come. MGM MIRAGE'S 7.4 billion dollars, 18.67 million-sq-ft, mixed-use development will consist of residences, hotels, casinos, shops, restaurants and showrooms. CityCenter will also be green, seeking LEED Silver certification. Perini Building Co. of Phoenix is the general contractor; Tishman Construction Corp., New York, is the construction manager; and San Francisco-based Gensler is the master architect. The site is anchored by twin, 60-story, cast-in-place concrete-and-glass hotel towers designed by Cesar Pelli, architect of the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur. The dual skyscrapers, which total 6.5 million sq ft, feature 4,000 hotel rooms, a 200,000-sq-ft casino, 1,800-seat Cirque du Soleil theater and 225,000 sq ft of meeting space.
