Las Vegas sports arena unveiled by Harrahs and AEG this week. A $500 million, 20,000 seat, privately financed venue will be built a block from the Las Vegas Strip. The 10 acres of land is located behind Paris and Bally’s resorts that is owned by Harrahs. The arena in Las Vegas, Nevada real estate is expected to start construction next summer after the agreed letter of intent between the two companies, and the completion of the paperwork.
Last month a similar arena was discussed by the City of Las Vegas and they chose REI Neon/Warburg Pincus developer for the 22,000 seat publicly funded sports arena in Downtown Las Vegas, NV. (more…)
Project CityCenter and MGM Mirage Las Vegas has $5.1 billion invested by Dubai World. The real estate developer of the World and Palm developments off the coast of Dubai agreed to purchase a 50 percent ownership in 9.5 percent of MGM Mirage common stock, which would cost $2.4 billion, and 50 percent in Project CityCenter real estate for $2.7 billion.
CityCenter Las Vegas is expected to finish in the last quarter of 2009. The mega resort will contain 2,650 luxury condos in several towers, a 4,000 room resort casino, 470,000 square feet of entertainment and retail space and two 400 room non gaming luxury hotels.
North Las Vegas real estate has been named the second fastest growing large city in the country by the U.S. Census Bureau from 1990 to 2000. This is prior to the huge growth since then in Las Vegas, Nevada.
North Las Vegas has more than 1,000 new residents moving to that location each month and continues to be one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. Another reason, including the lower cost of living compared to California and huge growth potential, makes this a tremendous area for homeowners and investors. Within 13 years the population is expected to top 500,000, larger than many cities.
