I do hope that City Center gets completed since it's supposed to be the beacon on the Strip. It will not only benefit the 8,500 workers, dozens of companies and the MGM, but it will be a morale boost for the City at large.

MGM could declare Dubai World in breach of the joint venture agreement and go the rest of the way alone with other financing, or MGM could sue to enforce the joint venture agreement. If MGM goes into Chapter XI, it could do the same in the Bankruptcy Court, where the Bankruptcy Judge would be likely to rule for MGM to assist in its reorganization.

Stand on top of the Green Vally parking garage and look at the strip. It looks so sad.

Thanks Mike.

As for the content of my comment, I'm sorry for being so glib. But, I'm tired of the racist rants that so predictably pop up in every comments thread of this publication. And yes, systematically judging entire populations of people based on nothing more than race, religion, or country of origin is evidence of ignorance and undereducation.

Consistently not consistantly. They must have taught that in 5th grade.

Yet another mindless, incoherent post from the ignorant and mindblowingly undereducated masses that post on LVRJ.com articles every day. Because of people like you, Las Vegas is consistantly ranked as one of the dumbest cities in America.

While its unfortunate that so many under educated people like yourself lack anything more than compulsory reading or writing skills, its even more unfortunate that at some point in your life you actually learned enough reading and writing skills to post your comments on this site. Las Vegas and this country would actually be better off if the fourth grade equivalent education you received had so utterly failed you that you might not have learned to write even the drivel you manage to post on this site.

I guess for once, and only once, Clark County schools are a victim of their own success.

Have they already sold there other properties to make this payment?

I dont' think MGM made 70mil in gaming revenue lately. They might be digging themselves a deeper whole by prolonging the inevitable.
