Will The Harmon Hotel At CityCenter Be Imploded?
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels
Is one of the hotels in the Las Vegas CityCenter complex doomed? It looks like one of the high-rise hotels in the $8.5 billion CityCenter could be gone before it ever opens. The Harmon Hotel has been deemed unfit to open because of extensive, nonconforming construction work. There is even talk of imploding the luxurious hotel before it ever sees a single guest.CityCenter opened in December 2009 with great fanfare and has a variety of open hotels nearby including Aria and the Mandarin Oriental. The 400-room Harmon Hotel & Spa was originally supposed to also include 200 residential units but that project was canceled. It was trimmed into a 27-story hotel that was supposed to open this year. The Harmon was designed by the firm of English architect Lord Norman Foster.
No decision on the hotel's fate will be made soon. MGM will hire consultants to evaluate the problems with the building and present possible solutions. Those findings will be presented to the court in October 2011 and no decision is likely to occur before the court makes a ruling, expected sometime in 2012.
