Tense Clean up required

Given that City Center is virtually complete (except the Harmon, which is likely to drag on for a protracted period while the lawyers do what they do) is it time to change the "wills" to "has"... or does, or a tense that lets one know that the project is complete.

Project CityCenter

This article, and a number of somewhat related articles, make up a core of changes that are fast occurring around the 'Strip' in Las Vegas. It would be good if some of my fellow Vegans (sic) could help keep these articles up to date. I think most are being kept relevant for the most part but there are some areas that move very fast. For instance, the Hôtel San Rémo recently became Hooters Casino Hotel, and the Aladdin is well on the way to becoming Planet Hollywood. sugarfish 20:53, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Drop the Project?

It seems that they have now dropped "Project" from the name, maybe the article should do the same. Atomly 02:26, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would maybe a nice idea to leave this article as the "construction phase article" and start a new article for the finished project. What does the rest of the wikipedians say?

--Lumber Jack 21:17, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I like your suggestion, but then, that's just MHO.Bo-Lingua 00:06, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

deaths

Why remove the information on the three deaths that have occurred at the project? They're verifiable, locally reported both in papers and on television, and not in any way biased.

I agree, and (after researching the matter a bit) have replaced it with slightly better wording. NoExec 23:21, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

advertisement, or article?

This article is coming off more like an ad for City Center than a wikipedia article. IMO, it's way off of wikipedia's npov. I took out a lot of biased language but somehow broke the coding in the process. I can't seem to fix it. Help, please. TwoLittleDolls

Yep, some sales representative seems to have confused this with a billboard. I will try to go through and erase all adjectives. Pure disgust.

Thanks Lumber Jack, this is a big improvement. NoExec 23:23, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

City of LV versus "LV"

The article is somewhat blurry on the exact geographic locale of the project which I believe is not in the actual city limits. The address in the infobox is kind of wacky too. Please fix :D davumaya 20:51, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know this is a late response after there has been a lot of cleanup. But, repeat after me, 'The USPS is not a reliable source for where the actual address is.' Any USPS address is for their purposes only and are not tied to the actual settlement where the address is located. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:43, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

City Center is in the Town of Paradise, NV. It may stretch into the southern most reaches of Winchester, but I could be wrong. It's pretty far from Vegas' city limits, which end at Sahara.Sierraoffline444 (talk) 20:09, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Grammar in article

Can someone review the grammar in the article and see if it is OK? If it is, please change the assessment for grammar to a 'yes'. Thanks. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:44, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Try for Good Article status

Is anyone interested in trying to get good article status for this article? I think it is in reasonable shape for this with some help from two or so more editors. I think the gallery may need to go, but I'm not sure. I just did a few edits to cleanup the article so that it should be in better share for passing.

Largest privately funded construction

If Dubai World is government-owned, how it this project "privately" funded? That does not seem right — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.163.162 (talk) 15:44, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

At the beginning the article says "It is the largest privately funded construction project in the history of the United States". I've heard it is the largest privately funded construction project in the history of the world. Who can confirm or disprove this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.60.95.138 (talk) 20:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the overall meaning is that neither the state nor federal governments of the United States are funding the development of CityCenter. Also, I haven't been too successful looking for sources purporting that it's the largest privately funded construction project in the world. 08OceanBeach^S.D. 18:32, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Names of non-famous people involved in construction

Is this necessary? I read this like Joe Shmoe the head of the carpenters wants his name on wikipedia. I don't think this is relevant to anyone's interests, except, I guess, the interests of the guys trying to boost their google footprint. It would be different if the named people were otherwise famous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.48.79.221 (talk) 04:21, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Page title

The article was just moved from CityCenter to ARIA Campus, which is the official name now being used. However, it doesn't seem to be in common use (I could only find this). From what I can see, recent sources are still calling it "CityCenter". We can note the new name in the opening sentence and maybe a few other places in the article, but I think the page title should be changed back per WP:NAMECHANGES.

Yeah, definitely. Oh, I didn't know this was posted a year ago. EverestMachine 4001 (talk) 02:04, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
