Las Vegas Sands Corp has broken ground on its US$8 billion expansion of Singapore integrated resort Marina Bay Sands.
The company held an official groundbreaking ceremony on the site of the expansion project on Tuesday, attended by, among others, LVS co-founder Dr Miriam Adelson, President and COO Patrick Dumont and Singapore’s prime Minister Lawrence Wong.
At the heart of the expansion project is a new 570-suite luxury hotel tower capped with signature rooftop and dining experiences, luxury retail boutiques, gaming, holistic spa and wellness amenities, and around 200,000 square feet of premium meeting space, the company said. A purpose-built 15,000-seat arena aims to enhance the live entertainment scene in Asia, it added.
