Cosmopolitan Resort On Schedule!

The Cosmopolitan Resort and Luxury Condominium developent will be completed!  The development has encountered several challenges during the past several months, with its future uncertain.  But construction has continued to progress and the property will open, while several other Las Vegas strip condo projects have postponed or cancelled.  The $3.9 billion property was being developed by Bruce Eichner, who recently defaulted on his construction loans.  At that time, the future of the development was uncertain.  Hyatt Corp invested substantial money into the project, and the Global Hyatt brand of hotels will manage the Cosmo’s hotel rooms.

New Owner

Deutsche Bank took over the property and has hired The Related Cos., New York, as owner’s representative.  The original general contractor is still involved, and the property is scheduled to open in December, 2009.  Plans for the complex are much like the original scheme for two 600-foot towers with 2,998 hotel and condo-hotel units atop a four-level retail, casino and entertainment podium.  Approximately 80% of the 1,825 condos have been sold, with sales totaling more than $1.35 billion.

Deutsche Bank will most likely sell the property upon its completion.  The completion of The Cosmopolitan is great news for the Las Vegas economy, with so many of the Las Vegas Strip projects like Echelon Place and The Plaza being postponed or cancelled.   The Cosmopolitan is a great addition to the luxury high-rise resort and condominium market in Las Vegas.  If you would like floor plans, pricing and current availability, contact Las Vegas Homes and Condos at 1-888-876-8383 or email terrilvp@cox.net.
