CityCenter is Las Vegas� grandest, most extravagant Strip production yet, encompassing 18 million-sq-ft of high design shops and restaurants, hotel and homes. The $8.5 billion, seven-building complex is the equivalent of nine Empire State buildings. It�s also the largest privately financed project in United State history. Construction required a well-coordinated, herculean effort from project contractor Perini Building Co., with Tishman Construction Corp. as executive construction manager and Gensler was executive architect.
"We believe the massive scale and private funding of CityCenter sets new records for a building construction project of any kind in the United States," says Perini President Craig Shaw. "This is a world-class project."
