Resorts World Las Vegas has rolled out a new rendering, another in a series of teases from this under-construction resort on the north end of the Las Vegas Strip.<\/p>\n

Here’s the latest from Resorts World.<\/p>\n

\"Resorts
Fun fact: Resorts World is slated to have 200 elevators and escalators. We are not making this up<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We’re pleased to report that construction of the Asian-themed resort seems to be accelerating in recent months, after sloth-like progress since its groundbreaking ceremony in May 2015.<\/p>\n

It’s estimated Resorts World will cost around $4 billion, and its owner, Genting Group, is clearly killing time until there’s sufficient demand to fill the hotel’s planned 3,000-plus rooms.<\/p>\n

Here’s our most recent photo of the construction. By our count, about a dozen floors have been added to the Resorts World hotel tower since early 2018.<\/p>\n

\"Resorts
Yes, they’re going with “Resorts World.” Invest $4 billion in a Vegas resort and you get to call it anything you’d like.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Genting still claims the massive resort will open in 2020, the same year the Raiders stadium will be completed, as well as an expansion to the Las Vegas Convention Center.<\/p>\n

It’s fun to compare the new Resorts World rendering to what might have been, Echelon Place. Here’s a look at Echelon, abandoned during the economic meltdown of 2008.<\/p>\n

\"Echelon\"
Echelon was to be built on the site of the former Stardust. This is the point where we get a little weepy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It seems more frequent updates about Resorts World may be in order now that there’s visible progress being made.<\/p>\n

A recent story on KSNV News 3 in Las Vegas reports Resorts World claims 800 people are currently working at the resort site.<\/p>\n

Genting says the two hotel towers are now “more than double their initial height” and workers on-site will increase six-fold in the first half of 2019.<\/p>\n

A company rep stated 25 floors have been poured in one tower and 22 in another. Ultimately, the hotel will be 60 stories tall.<\/p>\n

Genting further shared glass will arrive and be installed in fall 2018. Topping out of the towers will happen in fall 2019.<\/p>\n

The company remains confident construction will be completed at the end of 2020. We predict Resorts World will blow right through that completion date. Experts agree<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We love new and shiny, and Resorts World is shaping up to be downright lustrous.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
