Drive up The Strip at any time of day, and you'll see the construction of a modern city in motion: in a 60-month period, up to 7,000 construction workers will work with more than 26 million tons of steel. Day by day, they're changing the landscape of Las Vegas, creating a new community that will reshape the urban experience, providing residents and guests with every imaginable convenience and forever altering the way people live and play in Las Vegas.
CityCenter, a $7.8 billion, 76-acre urban resort destination, will be the culmination of MGM MIRAGE's visionary concept to revolutionize the Las Vegas Strip by creating a diverse urban destination that includes a resort casino; Veer Towers; Vdara Condo Hotel; Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas; The Harmon Hotel, Spa & Residences; and a one-of-a-kind retail and entertainment district. Individually, each building is striking and refined. Together, they create an extraordinary setting that is quickly staking its claim as one of the world's most desirable residential communities due to its remarkable architecture, elite amenities, unmatched service, and forward-thinking environmental initiatives. More than half of CityCenter's 2,650 exclusive residences already have been sold in record time.
A collaboration of the world's preeminent architects, interior designers and urban planners, CityCenter will deliver a coveted residential neighborhood in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. As a resident, you will be able to take it all in, one decadent step at a time. Whether you want to be pampered at one of several renowned spas or go out on the town starting with dinner prepared by an internationally renowned chef, followed by the newest Cirque du Soleil show celebrating the legacy of Elvis Presley, CityCenter will deliver unprecedented offerings to engage the senses and the soul.
The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas, situated on the upper floors of the Mandarin Oriental hotel tower, will mix the prestige of an internationally renowned resort brand and its matchless amenities with a world-class hotel and residential experience. Through the provision of bespoke benefits, those who will reside in the hotel's approximately 227 Zen-like condominiums will be treated as permanent guests of Mandarin Oriental and enjoy privileged access to its exceptional services. Here, luxury living will be an understatement that has seemingly caught the world's attention. Merely weeks after The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas were made available for purchase, more than 90% of its unparalleled offerings were acquired by sophisticated buyers seeking the magnificence of the Mandarin Oriental way of life. Still available for a lucky few are residences in the Mandarin Penthouse collection ranging in size from 2,065 square feet to 2,685 square feet. Residences are characterized by an artful, eastern approach, married with contemporary aesthetic splendor in a decadent selection of color palettes, materials and finishes.
