The echoes and flashes of the celebratory fireworks’ booms and bursts fade as the labor of millions of man- hours of design and construction gave way to many thousands of hospitality workers catering, 24/7, to yet many more thousands of guests exploring CityCenter, the Capital of the New World. And while CityCenter celebrated its much vaunted hotel, retail and casino openings in December, the Residential Team has been focused on the upcoming closings of The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas, Veer Towers and Vdara Condo Hotel.
By assuring quality in preparing the residential operating teams, starting up a mortgage lending business and counseling over 1,000 buyers on their purchases, no team of residential professionals has been more active in support of its buyers than your CityCenter Residential Team. Since my last letter, our achievements include:
• Introducing our price reduction, offering existing depositors an unprecedented 30% adjustment on closing;
• Implementing our seller financing program with over 500 applications garnered in just our first 30 days of operation;
• Kicking off our Pre-Delivery Inspection initiative, deploying our Pre-Closing Inspection (PCI) Representatives to test residences, as your ombudsmen, for finish quality and readiness prior to your PCI;
• Engaging our residential operating teams — see Your City Concierge story in this issue — to provide seamless continuity of VIP Residential Concierge service and unparalleled access to virtually limitless attractions, activities and venues at CityCenter and the MGM MIRAGE™ collection of resorts;
We will begin to record closings in the coming weeks and the pace will accelerate as we head into April, with the 30 to 60 days required to complete the processing and underwriting for hundreds of loan applications and the escrow process. Unlike the public spectacle of CityCenter’s openings, the residential closings are individual and personal moments. For instance, for the Mandarin Oriental closings, each occasion is marked by a tingsha bell ceremony to welcome the spirits of new opportunity and good fortune into the home.
Of course, we congratulate the new homeowners and acknowledge the profound gratitude we feel for their loyalty and commitment to CityCenter and the fulfillment of their purchase. Being a part of CityCenter, as many of our homeowners have been for three years, has been a transformational experience. A home in the Capital of the New World affords our newly closed homeowners a future of great possibilities.
Sincerely,
Tony Dennis, Executive Vice President CityCenter Residential Division CITYSCAPES :: In a city already stuffed with superlatives,

26 The ARIA casino offers the only gaming at CityCenter. 27 The pool at ARIA has six bars, 50 cabanas and 1,500 lounge chairs. 28 ARIA’s tri-level convention center features a 400-foot glass wall with poolside views from every level. 29 ARIA has non-smoking paths throughout the casino. 30 ARIA opened on December 16, 2009. 31 CityCenter’s Central Plant generates a portion of its own electricity on-site. 32 The Central Plant will produce one-third of the annual electricity needed at ARIA. 33 Generating electricity on-site is more efficient than transmitting power down long lines from plants miles away. 34 The technology that generates CityCenter’s electricity uses the same energy to heat all domestic hot water for all of CityCenter. 35 Water conservation technology and programs at CityCenter use 30 percent less water than other buildings and 60 percent less water in outdoor landscaping. 36 CityCenter developed and commissioned the first-ever fleet of stretch limos powered by clean-burning compressed natural gas. 37 Energy-efficient initiatives provide a savings equivalent to powering 7,700 households annually. 38 CityCenter has the largest Wi-Fi access area in the world, covering more than 14 million square feet. 39 More than 6,500 antennas coupled with nearly 3,000 wireless access points deliver Wi-Fi to every room and anywhere on
the CityCenter campus. 40 ARIA guestrooms have keyless locks with RFID technology. Guests unlock doors by passing their key over the lock. Keys cannot be demagnetized, reducing key failure.
41 Guestrooms have a single remote for one-touch control of lighting, temperature, televisions, music, wake-up calls, draperies, and service requests. 42 Each nightstand features a touch-screen panel that gives guests control of room settings from their bed and a “good night” button that turns off lights,
TVs and music; closes curtains; and turns on the privacy notification. 43 Every ARIA guestroom includes a 42-inch LCD HDTV and a panel for guests to connect their laptop to the big-screen monitor.
44 All guestrooms are networked with one gigabyte of bandwidth, delivering matchless connectivity to both Internet and hotel operations. 45 Wireless Internet connectivity is up to eight times faster (128 kilo-bytes) than the average U.S. guestroom today. 46 Maintenance messages—a remote needing new batteries or a mini-bar needing replenishing—are delivered through the wireless network so problems
can be identified and resolved before the guest is even aware of them.47 Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas is part of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, which has more than 41 hotels operating or in development
in 25 countries. 48 Mandarin Oriental features a Sky Lobby on the 23rd floor, where guests check in while taking in a spectacular view of Las Vegas. 49 Mandarin Oriental has separate valets for residents, hotel guests and those visiting for meetings and events. 50 Three-star Michelin Chef Pierre Gagnaire chose Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas for his first-ever U.S. restaurant, Twist.

The Residences at n Mandarin Oriental, Fa Las Vegas — a First Ever to Receive m a Symbolic, a Commemorative Fan I In celebration of Mandarin Oriental’s arrival at CityCenter, the hotel group has commissioned not one, but two fan-shaped art pieces to grace the Las Vegas property — the first time in the company’s 25 years. Traditionally, only the hotel receives such an honor, with the Las Vegas property being the latest location to join the elite few. This time, a second fan is being bestowed upon The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas—another first for Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.
The fans are exclusive decorative additions to the properties, a tradition that gives the guests and residents a sense of place for that particular environment and a mark of individuality for the hotels and residences.
The artwork, created by Chinese-American artist Eric Jiaju Lee, reflects 21st century luxury with oriental charm that is associated with Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group—a mix of the traditional and the contemporary.
The art incorporates the natural hues of the Southwest desert that surrounds Las Vegas, most notably in Red Rock Canyon, and the luxurious experience of urban Las Vegas that is CityCenter. The form of the fan itself reflects the hotel group’s fan logo, a contemporary design that represents the quality of service and privileged access to accommodations that is the essence of the Mandarin Oriental brand.
About the artist: Eric Jiaju Lee is a Chinese-American painter residing in Brooklyn, New York, with studio practices in both Brooklyn and Beijing, China. CITYINFO ::
