MGM Resorts International has unveiled expanded plans for its park, dining and entertainment district taking shape on the west side of the Las Vegas Strip.
Creating an interactive neighbourhood environment, The Park will connect the New York-New York and Monte Carlo resorts and the new 20,000-seat Las Vegas Arena currently in development by MGM and AEG.
New York-New York and Monte Carlo both are undergoing significant transformations of their Strip-facing experiences into robust plaza environments featuring casual eateries, bars, restaurants and retail destinations that will ultimately lead to The Park.
When it opens in 2016 in conjunction with the Arena, The Park will create an immersive outdoor destination spanning more than eight acres. Both New York-New York and Monte Carlo will transform their park-facing facades with a series of unique indoor/outdoor dining and entertainment venues, cultivating a vibrant patio culture that encompasses The Park's landscaped spaces.
