Construction has begun on the Safdie Architects-designed Las Vegas Sands, a luxury hotel to be constructed adjacent to the Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore. The $8 billion project comprises a 570-suite hotel and a 15,000-seat arena.

Rising 55 levels, the curving-form hotel is topped by a 76,000 square foot rooftop dining and experience area called Skyloop. The Skyloop’s form is defined by overlapping elliptical columns that spiral in opposing directions.

Adjacent to the hotel, a podium will be anchored by a 15,000-seat arena led by Populous. The venue will be integrated with the wider Marina Bay precinct, centered on the Safdie-designed Marina Bay Sands hotel completed in 2010.
