2009

Las Palmas Hotel and Residence - Set to become the city's largest non-gaming luxury hotel, the Las Palmas Hotel & Residences will be erected across the street from the Wynn Golf Course, just south of the Las Vegas Convention Center.

CityCenter - Las Vegas is a true 21st-century city, and by 2010, the Las Vegas Strip will have a futuristic new look, typified by the new Project CityCenter. The 66-acre development is being created by MGM Mirage as a mixed-use urban center that appeals to local residents as well as tourists. Project CityCenter, which will be located on the site of the Boardwalk Hotel-Casino, is still in the developmental process. The initial design phase is scheduled to take about 18 months. The first phase of the project will include 1, 650 luxury condominium-hotel units along with a 4, 000-room hotel-casino; three 400-room boutique hotels; and 550, 000 square feet of retail, dining and entertainment space. Construction of the first phase will take approximately 42 months, with an opening anticipated in 2010. Project CityCenter will be located on Las Vegas Boulevard, between Bellagio and the Monte Carlo. U.S. Highway 95 and Interstate 15 provide access to other locations in the Las Vegas valley.

Encore - the tower will be a $2.1 billion, 2, 034 room hotel project adjacent to the existing resort and on the remaining frontage of Las Vegas Blvd. Originally envisioned as an expansion of Wynn Las Vegas, Encore will be a full-scale resort and is set to open in the first quarter of 2009. The hotel will feature a 74, 000 sq.ft. casino, several restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. As of March of 2007, construction was on the 18th floor, and will be about 60 floors when complete, making it approximately the same height as the Wynn.

2010

Echelon Place - Echelon Place is Boyd Gaming Corporation's replacement for the Stardust Resort & Casino. Echelon Place has an estimated cost of $4 billion with construction beginning in 2007 and the opening in 2010. The $4 billion price tag would make Echelon Place the second-most expensive hospitality industry development ever.
