<p>On Saturday we paid a visit to<a href="http://www.citycenter.com/" target="_blank"> CityCenter</a>, the newest development on the strip that includes 2 hotels, a condo structure, restaurants, shopping center and spas.</p>
<p>The development, officially opened in December, is completely <a href="http://www.usgbc.org/DisplayPage.aspx?CMSPageID=1988" target="_blank">LEED-certified</a> making it the largest sustainably-designed architectural development in the world. Rockstar <a href="http://www2.citycenter.com/vision/vision_architects.aspx" target="_blank">architects involved</a> in the project include Helmut Jahn, Studio Daniel Libeskind, and Foster + Partners.</p>
<p>The modernist design is breathtaking with plenty of glass and steel, extraordinary lighting and surprising turns and angles at every step.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a beautiful complex and well worth the visit. I had a great time visiting the Aria Casino where we caught a few football games, played some games of our own in the casino and nibbled at a totally delish patisserie.  Check out some snaps below!</p>
