The Strip project will open in phases this month after more than five years of development and construction. The 500,000-square-foot Crystals opens Thursday, and the 392-room Mandarin Oriental opens to customers Saturday. Aria, CityCenter’s centerpiece 4,004-room hotel-casino, opens Dec. 16.

The 57-story Vdara, designed by RV Architecture, which is led by Rafael Viñoly, has 1,495 suites, all with fully equipped kitchens. The units include deluxe suites and one- and two-bedroom units ranging from 500 to 1,650 square feet. There are also penthouse units and 250 corner-end suites with panoramic views.

Vdara is a condotel, which means the units can be bought and then placed into a rental program in which they can be leased as hotel rooms when not in use by the owners. The owners and MGM Mirage would share in the revenues produced by the units.

Vdara will have a signature restaurant, Silk Road, created by chef Martin Heierling, who developed Bellagio’s Sensi restaurant. Bar Vdara is in the hotel’s center lobby. Vdara also has an 18,000-square-foot spa, 10,000 square feet of meeting space and a 40,000-square-foot pool deck.

The Las Vegas-based casino operator will announce this morning it has finalized two Strip land acquisition deals worth a combined $575 million that will give the company more than 100 contiguous acres for development stretching north from Circus Circus Drive to Sahara Avenue.

Another massive project that according to the article in the Review Journal should start before City Center I is completed.

Stay tuned.
