Wynn unveils plans and renderings for a 1,000-foot-tall hotel-casino in UAE

The centerpiece will include a 1,000-foot-tall hotel tower rising above the island’s shoreline next to the Arabian Sea.

With the UAE home to nearly three dozen buildings topping 1,000 feet, including Burj Khalifa in Dubai, which is the world’s tallest building at 2,717 feet, Wynn CEO Craig Billings wanted the design to stand out in the region noted for its unique architectural buildings and monuments.


I've been thinking, if they (Wynn) are taking into account the significance of a tall tower, we could probably end up with a proposal for the tallest in Hudson Yards at least, if not more. The office tower would be a significant one also. The question is, which tower goes where?

The casino/resort would need a large footprint, the office tower would need a significant footprint as well, though not as large. However, I wonder if it will be the office tower that is moved from it's location. We know the school and apartments on that end stays. The further away from a casino, the better.
