| has gloss | eng: W Las Vegas was to be a Condo-hotel resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was announced in 2005 as a joint venture between Edge Group and minority partner Starwood Resorts. It was initially expected to cost around $1.7 billion, and include 3,000 to 4,000 mixed-use hotel and residential units, a 75,000 square foot casino, and an assortment of restaurants and stores. In June 2006, the project expanded to include the land previously planned for George Clooney's Las Ramblas Resort. As of May 4, 2007, the project was canceled due to a number of different factors, including increases in construction costs and the pull-out of Starwood from the venture. Edge Resorts stated that all 750 people who had reserved a unit were being issued refunds. |
