  Encore Suites at Wynn Las Vegas

In March 2005, less than two months before the opening of Wynn Las Vegas, The Steve announced plans for the $1.74 billion 2,034-suite Encore. The smallest suites will be 700 square feet (larger than the new rivals, Palazzo and Caesars Augustus Tower). The 230-square-foot bathrooms will be larger than some old Las Vegas hotel rooms. The casino will be 70,000 square feet. Five restaurants, 11 retail shops and 60,000 Sq. Ft. of additional meeting and conference facilities are also in the plans.

The Encore at Wynn Las Vegas will be a separate property, however both properties will be connected via the public areas and run as one.

This project will make Wynn Las Vegas the fifth largest hotel in the world with 4,740 rooms and suites. Palazzo at the Venetian will be completed before Encore taking the Venetian to the #1 spot with over 7000 rooms.

Encore Suites at Wynn Las Vegas is scheduled to open in December of 2008. The site is North of the existing property and directly across the strip from the New Frontier.

There's a lot going on in Vegas! A lot over here in SW Florida. That's why the market WILL be back. All these investors are not stupid!

Sharon - You are so right, this post is just a fraction of what is happening in Las Vegas. I will be posting more projects with photos in the next couple of weeks.

People need to stop listening to all this media crap about how bad the country is doing. Don't you really think if it was that bad that all these projects in Las Vegas, SW Florida, etc. would stop?

The building hasn't stopped in Las Vegas since 1905 when it became a city, I hope I have that date right. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

Robert, yes there's an awful lot going on around Las Vegas, it's a sea of cranes around here. No, the economy is booming, but it's not all despair, either. Somewhere in between with a lot of improvement on the horizon.

Robert, I LOVE this post.  I used to live in Vegas and I am so happy for the opportunity to keep tabs on an ever changing landscape.  I'm so jealous that you are still out there and I'm not. ;)
