Veer Towers, Residential skyscrapers in Las Vegas Strip, US.
Veer Towers are twin 37-story condominium towers in the CityCenter complex on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. Each tower rises 480 feet (150 m) and leans five degrees, in opposite directions, on a parallelogram-shaped footprint. The facades are grids of yellow-gold panels and glass, and the glass-walled bases hold lobbies with metal and exposed concrete walls.
Announced in October 2006 as part of MGM Mirage's CityCenter, the towers were built by general contractor Perini Building Company and first carried the name Sobella Residential Towers. Rebar errors found during construction were fixed by 2009 with fiberglass jackets around the columns. They opened on July 15, 2010, later than CityCenter's December 2009 debut, as its only all-residential property.
The lobby walls of both towers carry mud drawings by Richard Long titled Circle of Chance and Earth. He diluted mud brought from the River Avon in England and applied it by hand. The lobbies, with metal and exposed concrete walls, were designed by Francisco Gonzalez Pulido.
The towers stand within CityCenter on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, next to The Crystals and the Waldorf Astoria. They are a private condominium building, so interior amenities such as the pools and fitness centers are for residents and their guests; visitors see the lobbies and exteriors.
The two towers tilt in opposite directions at five-degree angles, giving them a distinctive leaning profile. The yellow glass panels of the facade are visually striking and also reflect sunlight to reduce energy consumption.
