MGM MIRAGE - Southwest Contractor's Las Vegas Owner of the year

摘要

Many thought it was inevitable that real estate mogul Donald Trump would build in Las Vegas. "For ten years there's been speculation that Mr. Trump would come out here to Las Vegas," said Jack Christie, vice president of sales and marketing for Trump International. "But what really caused him to come here was Donald coming together with Phil Ruffin." The 370 million dollars, 64-story Trump International Hotel and Tower will be built on land owned by Ruffin as part of his New Frontier site on the Las Vegas Strip. The gold-tinted tower broke ground in July 2005 and is being constructed by Phoenix-based Perini Building Company.
