City Center

When completed in 2009, CityCenter will be one of the great urban places of the world, a reflection of the best of the life that we’re living today and tomorrow. It will be a place of continual evolution, richness and diversity—a place people from around the world will desire to visit and experience.

Across the country and throughout the world, people are rediscovering the excitement of the city. The city is where the people are, where the action is, and where all that’s thrilling and new comes together—whoever you are. Las Vegas will soon have its own urban core— a 76-acre city-within-a-city that’s destined to redefine the skyline. It will be an urban setting unlike any other in the United States. Or, really, anywhere. CityCenter.

CityCenter could only exist in Las Vegas— and only MGM MIRAGE, the world’s premier developer of destination resorts, could build it. No other developer has the vision to realize such a forward-thinking project with the same care and attention—or the experience to offer hotels, retail and amenities that will exceed the high expectations for which MGM MIRAGE is known throughout the world.

No other developer has the depth of talent and resources to mastermind a project of comparable scale—a project that will literally reshape the Las Vegas skyline and create a new international destination for entertainment, dining, nightlife, retail, art and design. And few other developers have shown the same level of commitment to sustainable design, creating a place that people will appreciate and enjoy for decades to come.

INNOVATION AND CONSERVATION COME TOGETHER AT CITYCENTER

CityCenter reflects an optimistic vision of the future, a vision that combines a healthy quality of life with a global commitment to sustainable design. Eight award-winning architects have engineered a “city within a city,” where residents and visitors can live, work, and play. This vibrant community will transform your expectations, providing a remarkable demonstration that a community can be both beautiful and sustainable.

We aspire to achieve LEED™ (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification from the U.S. Green Building Council, taking an innovative approach to site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental air quality.

A SUSTAINABLE DESIGN SHOWCASE
CityCenter’s Commitment to Sustainability includes:

Conserving Water:
CityCenter is located in a beautiful desert valley. Our architects and planners have integrated water conservation measures throughout the community. From beautiful, specially-designed low-flow bathroom fixtures to a highly efficient irrigation system, CityCenter’s design conserves water, a precious resource.

Preserving Indoor Environmental Quality:
Bold new construction strategies will ensure that the air you breathe at CityCenter is clean and fresh. Construction crews are implementing innovative new techniques to minimize pollutants in the air conditioning system. Materials utilized during facility construction have been chosen to minimize emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These strategies will ensure the health and comfort of our guests and visitors.

Conserving Energy:
CityCenter’s dramatic design and exciting amenities utilize natural light and innovative strategies to conserve power… and much of the power that is consumed at CityCenter will be generated on-site. CityCenter’s cogeneration solution will utilize the excess heat generated by the on-site power plant to heat water for use by guests. This reduces demand on the power grid and benefits the entire community.

City Center's sub divisions

	Mandarin Oriental Hotel & Residences The Mandarin Oriental Hotel and Residences will mix the prestige of an internationally renowned resort brand and its unparalleled level of amenities with a world-class, five star hotel and residential experience. Located on the south side of the MGM City Center project and fronting the famed Las Vegas Strip, the Mandarin Oriental owners are offered custom-made services and amenities to complement their lifestyle - condominium owners are treated as permanent guests and every whim is catered to. In addition to hotel suites, The Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas will offer 227 luxury residential units on its top floors, and will be the most lavish and costly of the projects four residential elements. The hotel was designed by KPF architects in colaboration with top interior designer Adam Tihany who is noted for extraordinary projects world-wide.
	Veer Residential Condos The Veer residential condos will be ideally located in the center of the MGM CityCenter's retail district. There will be over 500,000 square feet of fabulous boutiques, clubs, theaters, shops and gourmet restaurants for residents to choose from, truly allowing them to live, play and work without ever leaving the development. The two distinctive leaning glass towers will rise 36 feet and house more than 700 modern loft-like residences. The building's surface will feature horizontal metal blades that slowly change color during the day and that will shade floor-to-ceiling windows from the burning Las Vegas heat. The design will challenge engineers working on the project, but residents will enjoy less obstructed views than would be possible in a more conventional high rise. The towers are the creation of noted German architect Helmut Jahn, known for sleek, ultramodern exteriors and unusual shapes. Jahn said he welcomes the chance to ply his trade in a town that encourages the unexpected. "I don't think we could have done this in Chicago or New York," where urban, residential construction follows a fairly conservative pattern, he said. MGM Mirage thinks the leaning tower design creates the kind of bold look the company wanted as a visual gateway into CityCenter. "The angling creates a sense of motion" as well as more openness and light, said Tony Dennis, executive vice president of CityCenter's residential division.
	Vdara Condo Hotel Suites Vdara will be an elegant 50 story luxury condo hotel tower rising from the MGM CityCenter project designed by RV Architecture and Rafael Vinoly. In muted shades of ebony, the Vdara tower will feature 1543 fully furnished condo hotel suites ideally located between the Bellagio and the CityCenter's main gaming resort. The interiors will feature subtle understated decor, wide open floor plans and floor to ceiling walls of glass with spectacular views of the city.
	Harmon Hotel & Residences The Harmon Hotel and Residences will bring the ultimate in hip and trendy to the MGM City Center project. Designed by Foster and Partners, The Harmon will be operated by Andrew Sassoon's Light Group, one of the leading nightclub and bar management companies in the country, which also operates "Light" in the Bellagio, one of Las Vegas' most popular clubs. The Harmon, a "lifestyle" hotel, will define urban living on the Strip and deliver top-flight services and amenities. Atop the Harmon hotel suites there will also be 228 luxury condo residences catering to the ultra chic and young celebrities.
