- 08/29/08 01:35 PM
About a month ago the media was having a feeding frenzy. MGM Mirage and Dubai World missed a self imposed deadline to secure the final $3 billion in funding for the $9.2 billion ($11.2 billion including the land) City Center. At the time, they had only been able to secure $1.6 billion of the remaining amount for the largest private commercial development in the US history. Some reports went as far as to say the project opening next year was 'in trouble'.
