LAS VEGAS (AP) - MGM Mirage says two more structures at CityCenter have received an environmental certification.
Mandarin Oriental and Veer Towers have gotten gold certification in the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program.
The new recognitions bring the total number of LEED gold certified facilities at CityCenter to six.
The gold rating is the second-highest available. The system evaluates things like a building's site, the materials and resources used to build it and design innovation.
Among features at CityCenter are radiant floor cooling, skylights and water conservation technology.
CityCenter will start opening in phases on Dec. 1.
