MGM wants to demolish the Harmon Tower

October 18, 2011

Never used Harmon Tower on the short fuse for demolition

In the heart of City Center, lies the Harmon Tower. Orginally planned to have 400 rooms and 207 condominium on 49 floors, but was halted after 28 stories due to improper installation of critical rebar. On July 11, 2011 a report was released that indicated that the building was likely to collapse in a major earthquake and that a determination of possible repairs would take at least a year. On August 15, 2011 MGM Resorts announced plans to implode the building instead of repairing it. The current fate of tower is still held up in the courts.
