Reimagined Resorts World Property

Resorts World Las Vegas is a hotel and casino currently under construction on the Las Vegas Strip in Winchester, Nevada, United States, planned to open in summer 2021. The property had been the site of the Stardust Resort and Casino until 2007, when Boyd Gaming demolished the resort to develop its Echelon Place project.

Boyd halted construction in 2008 due to economic conditions and sold the property to Genting Group in March 2013, when Genting announced plans to redevelop the site as Resorts World Las Vegas.

Resorts World Ground Breaking Las Vegas

Groundbreaking was initially scheduled for 2014, with the first phase expected to open in 2016. However, the opening date was delayed several times due to redesigns of the project. Groundbreaking took place in May 2015, and construction began in late 2017. At a cost of $4.3 billion, Resorts World would be the most expensive resort property ever developed in Las Vegas.

The resort is to include an LED video globe, measuring 50 feet in diameter.  In addition, the west tower has a 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) LED screen, measuring 294 feet in height and 340 feet in width. It took seven months to construct. The east tower will feature a smaller LED screen measuring 19,000 sq ft (1,800 m2)

The project will include one of the largest Conrad hotels in the world, with approximately 1,500 rooms. A portion of the Resorts World hotel, with 230 rooms, will be branded by LXR as the high-end Crocksfords Las Vegas.
