Resorts World. It’s an enigma.<\/p>\n

The Asian-themed resort from Genting Group is being built on the bones of the abandoned Echelon Place project.<\/p>\n

Resorts World broke ground on May 5, 2015. Since then, progress on the bajillion-dollar resort has been agonizingly slow.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at Resorts World today.<\/p>\n

\"Resorts
Resorts World seems to be perpetually preparing for something to happen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Oh, yes, there are cranes.<\/p>\n

They showed up in late 2017<\/a>, creating a warmth in our loin we had not experienced in some time given the repeated delays in construction of the $4 billion, 3,000-room hotel-casino.<\/p>\n

The arrival of the cranes at Resorts World followed on the heels of hoopla about a construction manager being hired, as well as word Genting had finalized $400 million in contracts with vendors.<\/p>\n

Anticipation was at an all-time high that Resorts World would actually be a thing.<\/p>\n

Then came months and months of not a whole lot.<\/p>\n

Resorts World has said publicly there are 400 workers on the site now.<\/p>\n

\"Resorts
It was on the Internet, it must be true.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From our observations, Resorts World either has a counting problem or a lying problem. Since casinos never lie, we’ll just assume the official Resorts World abacus is in the shop.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the Resorts World site.<\/p>\n
