Resorts World Las Vegas Chooses Otis for New Resort & Casino

LAS VEGAS, June 19, 2018

"Our Otis Las Vegas team created the blueprint for completing casino and resort projects on time," said Tom Vining, president, Otis Americas. "We're honored that Genting Group placed their trust in us, and we're committed to performing uncompromising work in preparation for the 2020 opening of this new Las Vegas landmark."

More than 80 Otis field mechanics will work together to install units including Otis SkyRise®, SkyBuild™, Gen2® and HydroFit™ elevators, NCE escalators, and CompassPlus® destination dispatching. 

"The Otis SkyBuild™ elevators can jump quickly to keep pace with construction without any additional heavy equipment," said Tony Huffer, vice president of construction, Resorts World Las Vegas.  "Our workers can use the SkyBuild elevators for safe, indoor transport during construction and then units quickly convert to SkyRise elevators when construction is finished."

The $4 billion, 3,000-room Resorts World is currently being built on the Las Vegas strip led by Malaysia-based Genting Group. It is located on the Strip's northern end and will include a 100,000-square-foot casino, dining options of Asian cuisine and retail space.
