I realllllly wanted to give this a 2 . . . but I just couldn't justify to myself \"I've experienced better.\"  City Center is absolutely incredible, but yet for me it fell flat.  As everyone's said, the architecture is amazing.  The water features are outstanding.  And it's definitely luxury all the way.  I think the problem I had was the overkill on the latter -- it just didn't feel welcoming to me.  It felt cold and impersonal, although my impression was that if you had money to burn then the red carpet would be laid out and you'd have an army of employees at your beck and call.  The immense complex of glass and steel, as fantastic as the architecture is, also struck me as 'too much'; instead of fitting in, to me it just seemed to crash into the Strip, closing off a huge chunk of the broad desert sky.  (For what it's worth, I have similar feelings about the ever-expanding Caesar's Palace.)\n\nDespite my frustrations though, I definitely have to grudgingly appreciate what they've done.  I'm curious to see how it develops as they complete the numerous projects still underway.
