History

Development and construction

The Parisian under construction in August 2015.

The Parisian was estimated to cost around $2.5 billion and is being funded by Las Vegas Sands with $1.5 billion in bank loans and $900 million to $1 billion in cash. The company will also have to pay a penalty of 900,000 patacas ($112,700) for the delay in developing the plot.[5]

Construction began in February 2013.[6] It was originally expected to be operational in late 2015,[2] but was open in September 2016.

Design

The Parisian has a half-scale 525-foot Eiffel Tower as one its landmarks.[1]

The property has approximately 3000 hotel rooms, 170 shops and 56,000 sq feet of meeting space. In addition, the resort features a 1,200-seat theatre. For the first month of the hotel's opening, the theatre hosted Thriller Live, and hopes to attract more Broadway and West End performances. [7][8][9]
