Conceived to bring a true center to The Strip, CityCenter is much more than a collection of resorts and residences; it's a community - a welcoming environment for people to gather, relax and enjoy. Great pedestrian corridors, dynamic public spaces, authentic richness and diversity of experiences evoke the energy of the world's most exciting places. CityCenter's public Fine Art Collection enlivens the street and engages passersby. As if in a strolling gallery, guests happen upon works by world-renowned artists such as Maya Lin or Nancy Rubins as they wander through CityCenter's walkways, hotels and residences.

A true community also has regard for its surroundings. CityCenter is one of the largest sustainable developments in existence, bringing a new level of environmental consciousness to the world-famous Strip. The U.S. Green Building Council has awarded Gold LEED® certification to ARIA, Vdara Hotel & Spa; Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas, Veer Towers and Crystals, marking the highest LEED achievement by any hotel, retail district or residential development in Las Vegas. The Harmon Hotel also is pursuing LEED® certification.

"CityCenter bridges the vitality of Las Vegas with the experiences travelers seek when they visit great cities around the world, whether London, Hong Kong or San Francisco - spectacular architecture, culturally significant art, great public spaces, sophisticated hotels, unique restaurants and incredible amenities," said Bobby Baldwin, president and CEO, CityCenter. "It is an evolutionary destination that aims to transform Las Vegas as a new symbol at its core, like the Guggenheim in Bilbao, the Pompidou in Paris or the SONY Center in Berlin."

Physically connected to Bellagio and adjacent to ARIA Resort & Casino, Vdara offers access to all of the entertainment, gaming, shopping, dining and nightlife at CityCenter and in Las Vegas, while also providing a retreat from it all.
• Architecture. Designed by RV Architecture, LLC, led by Rafael Viñoly, Vdara's distinctive crescent shape and unique skin of patterned glass creates one of the most striking design statements in Las Vegas. The sleek, shimmering structure affords guests some of the most breathtaking views the city has to offer. Within, sophisticated open spaces accented with materials and colors inspired by the desert landscape evoke a sense of warmth and serenity.
• Dining. Martin Heierling, the acclaimed innovator behind Bellagio's renowned Sensi, serves as executive chef for Vdara. Inspired by the ancient trade route, Silk Road's contemporary Mediterranean menu begins with only the freshest sustainable ingredients, and then travels the world via Middle Eastern and Asian influences brought to Europe along the legendary route. Silk Road is wrapped in a smart East-meets-West décor by Karim Rashid reminiscent of a vibrant bazaar, with seating that overlooks the energy and excitement of CityCenter. Silk Road transforms as the day evolves, from fresh and lively at daybreak to chic and sexy at nightfall.
• Art. For Vdara, Nancy Rubins created one of the most visually stunning works of art at CityCenter with "Big Edge." Measuring approximately 57 feet wide and 75 feet long, "Big Edge" is a colorful composition of numerous aluminum rowboats, canoes and other small river and ocean vessels finessed into a gravity-defying form that Rubins calls "a blooming flower." Peter Wegner developed "Day for Night, Night for Day" 2009, comprised of two wall pieces, one solar-themed soaring approximately 45 feet and one lunar-themed reaching approximately 34 feet, each made of stacked, colored paper. Displayed on the east and west walls of Vdara's concierge lobby, respectively, the works follow the natural pattern of the sun. Vdara also acquired Frank Stella's "Damascus Gate Variation I," 1969. Displayed behind check in, the piece features a design of interlaced semicircles made of fluorescent alkyd resin on a 96 x 384 inch shaped canvas. Displayed within Vdara's intimate lobby and on loan from Bellagio, LLC is "Lucky Dream,' a breathtaking masterpiece by Robert Rauschenberg created via vegetable dye transfer on polylaminate.

Crystals retail and entertainment district - December 3, 2009

• Architecture. Libeskind conceived Crystals' exterior to be a dynamic sculpture that presents a work of art from every angle. The multi-faceted, brilliant glass canopy depicts the intricate beauty of a quartz crystal that welcomes an abundance of natural light into the stunning three-level experiential environment.
• Atmosphere. Within, Rockwell was inspired to create an abstracted 21st century park that reintroduces and celebrates nature and the seasons. A central element of this design is the three-story sculptural tree house that will reach 70 feet from the ground level to frame an oculus in the roof. Visible throughout Crystals, the tree house will serve as a meeting point for guests and will unfold on the second level to surround the terrace seating at Mastro's Ocean Club.

Measuring approximately 10 feet tall and 17 feet long by 7 feet deep, the abstract work of art displays a baby wrapped in its mother's embrace. On The Strip near Crystals, CityCenter features works by French designer-sculptor François-Xavier Lalanne. CityCenter showcases three of Lalanne's edition of "Tourterelle," 1997, a large-scale turtledove crafted from aluminum and wood with a seat carved into its body and wings.

On display at the hotel's entrance will be Masatoshi Izumi's sculpture "Untitled," 2007-2008, made of large pieces of intricately carved basalt, a form of lava that has cooled on the surface of the volcano.

ARIA Resort & Casino - December 16, 2009
ARIA Resort & Casino will be a fusion of energy, inspiration and vision, featuring an unprecedented combination of striking architecture, sustainable design, high-end service and spectacular amenities. Even in a city such as Las Vegas, with its extraordinary history of dynamic cutting-edge developments, ARIA will be demonstrably different than anything that has preceded it.
• Architecture. Designed by the world-renowned firm Pelli Clarke Pelli, ARIA's two breathtaking curvilinear steel and glass towers embody the excitement and vitality of Las Vegas in a 21st century building; a crystalline, undulating form gleaming in the desert light.

• Dining. ARIA has assembled many of the best and brightest chefs and restaurateurs from around the country, uniting a pair of remarkable Las Vegas newcomers with those who have played integral roles in the development of Las Vegas' culinary scene: Masayoshi Takayama, Shawn McClain, Michael Mina, Julian Serrano, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Sirio Maccioni, Jean-Philippe Maury and The Light Group. Each will deliver a concept totally new to their repertoire.
• Entertainment. ARIA will take one of the most captivating, hip-swiveling forces of all time and re-create an old-school vibe in its intimate approximately 1,840-seat theatre. The visionary team at Cirque du Soleil partnered with CKX, Inc. and its subsidiary Elvis Presley Enterprises to create a permanent production celebrating the timeless musical legacy of Elvis Presley, Viva ELVIS™. The production aims to pay tribute to Elvis' music and life, fusing dance and acrobatics, live music and iconic tracks, nostalgia and modernity, high technology and raw emotion. Extraordinary artistry, astonishing acrobatics, stunning special effects and The King will rev up vintage Vegas into a show like no other.
• Art.

Modern décor, lavish amenities, cutting-edge entertainment and next-generation technology will be the hallmark of these plush retreats.
• Guestroom Technology. ARIA will feature the most technologically advanced guestrooms in the country. Upon a guest's first entrance, they will be "greeted:" curtains will open, lights turn on and the TV display a menu of preferences. Guests can wake up through controlled temperature, preferred music or TV channels and the opening of curtains. One touch can make-over the entire room: the "good night" button turns everything off - from TV and music to lights - as the privacy notification turns on.
• Spa. In ARIA's 80,000-square-foot spa, nature's healing properties will take center stage. Salt, stone, earth, fire and water will join to create a spa experience that elevates guests to a meditative state. The two-level Spa will offer 62 treatment rooms, a full-service salon, an advanced fitness center and Las Vegas' first co-ed spa balcony, featuring an outdoor infinity-edge pool and views of ARIA's spectacular poolscape.

• Casino. Offering 150,000 square feet of gaming, ARIA's unique layout and design elements will allow guests to enjoy the energy and excitement of their favorite selections in a more personal and intimate setting.

Veer Towers
Veer Towers, CityCenter's most unique residential development, is a masterful translation of energy and excitement into physical form; its two 37-story glass towers shimmer day and night. Inclined at five-degree angles - a feature celebrated by the development's name - the towers seem to dance with each other.
• Architecture. Architect Helmut Jahn conceived Veer Towers to symbolize spirit and optimism with a strong iconic value; by leaning them they became a sculpture. Lobbies and public spaces by notable designer Francisco Gonzalez-Pulido** showcase impressive works of glass and metal with plenty of natural light.
• Residences. Each tower will house approximately 335 modern condominium residences ranging from 500 to nearly 3,300 square feet, available in studios, deluxe studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom flats, and penthouses. Open floor plans will feature floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall windows that capture spectacular views of Las Vegas and the surrounding CityCenter. Light-filled rooms, natural textures and a range of whites will infuse streamlined interiors with openness. Modern kitchens, living and dining areas will be ideal for entertaining while spacious spa-styled bathrooms invite retreat. Contemporary residences will offer European-style features and designer-selected fixtures.
• Amenities. Atop each striking tower, residents will enjoy an amenities floor featuring an unequaled view of Las Vegas complemented by an infinity-edge pool, hot tub, a sun deck and a patio for outdoor entertaining. Within, Veer will feature recreation rooms for special events or casual celebrations, private media rooms with panoramic windows, a fitness center with men's and women's steam rooms, and a business center.
• Art. On display at Veer Towers will be two large-scale commissioned works by Richard Long. Entitled "Circle of Life" and "Earth," Long's two mud wall drawings will each measure approximately 80 feet high by 50 feet wide. For Long, the natural world provides both the palette and the canvas on which he manifests his earthworks. In some cases, he brings the outside in. For Veer, he will create a viscous paint by diluting mud and then carefully applying it to the walls with his hands, resulting in extraordinary images fashioned from purely mundane materials. The two large-scale works will engulf the west and east walls, respectively. Long transported the mud to Las Vegas from the River Avon, which runs through his home town of Bristol, England.
• Entertainment. Veer Towers rise from Crystals, CityCenter's spectacular retail and entertainment district, giving residents unprecedented access to the best of stylish, big city living. Upscale dining, lavish shopping, electric nightlife and entertainment are just steps away.
