• Wynn Las Vegas was constructed on the site of the Desert Inn which occupied the site since 1950.

Le Reve opened as Wynn Las Vegas on April 28, 2005 and construction on a sister property known as Encore at Wynn Las Vegas began exactly one year later. Encore at Wynn Las Vegas opened on December 22, 2008.
• Encore at Wynn Las Vegas cost $2.3 billion to construct. The final cost of Wynn Las Vegas after the addition of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas totaled at $5.2 billion making it the most expensive resort ever constructed at the time of completion.
