Nevada <strong>Best</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>2004</strong><br />
<strong>Southwest</strong> Contractor <strong>Best</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>2004</strong><br />
Concrete Project<br />
Hilton Grand Vacations Club<br />
Las Vegas has more than 123,311 hotel<br />
rooms, but its timeshare inventory has<br />
lagged woefully behind, prompting<br />
ambitious new developments such as<br />
Hilton Grand Vacations’ $450 million,<br />
1,523-unit complex.<br />
This is the first <strong>of</strong> four planned Hilton<br />
towers on a 10-acre site on the strip. The<br />
massive 441,000-sq.-ft. undertaking<br />
entails a 285-ft.-tall tower, a two-story<br />
low-rise lobby and a number <strong>of</strong> recreational<br />
amenities. The cast-in-place concrete<br />
structure is 10-ft. taller than the<br />
Georgia Dome and 25-ft. shorter than<br />
the Statue <strong>of</strong> Liberty. The project will<br />
use 21,000-cu. yds. <strong>of</strong> concrete and is<br />
supported by 3-million pounds <strong>of</strong> rebar.<br />
The interior features one, two and three<br />
bedroom time share units, ranging from<br />
725 sq. ft. to 1,430 sq. ft. in size. Serviced<br />
from a central plant with two 520-ton<br />
capacity chillers, each unit has villa-style<br />
features, including air conditioning, a<br />
washer/dryer and a kitchen.
