44-story Circa in downtown Las Vegas on track for 2020 opening
The skyward progress of downtown's newest resort is on schedule, but Circa owner Derek Stevens still has a few surprises up his sleeve.
Stevens said both the 777-room resort at Main and Fremont streets and the nine-story, 1,201-space parking garage known as the "Garage Mahal" are "going down the right path."
The garage is being built on the west side of Main and will be connected to the resort with a bridge over the street.
The garage is being designed with the convenience of ride-hailing drivers and their customer pickups and drop-offs in mind.
"The key bullet points are that both Circa and Garage Mahal are on time and we're progressing right on time for our planned December 2020 opening," Stevens said Monday.
The 600-worker crews on different shifts around-the-clock will pour the concrete floor of the building's 10th story this week, and Stevens said the schedule is to pour a floor a week for the next 30 weeks. The 1.25 million-square-foot resort, with 44 floors dominated by suites, will feature the tallest hotel tower north of the Strip.
