"We believe Drew Las Vegas is set to usher in the next generation of Las Vegas 
resorts. It will be unlike anything on the Strip today – a truly integrated 
resort that brings together a unique take on Las Vegas and curated set of 
experiences from around the world," says Steven Witkoff, Chairman and Chief 
Executive Officer for Witkoff. "We are thrilled to be working with such a 
prestigious and visionary firm as Diller Scofidio + Renfro. Our organizations 
share a commitment to challenging convention by seeking out original, 
transformative outcomes." 

Charles Renfro, Diller Scofidio + Renfro Partner and lead designer of the Drew, 
adds, "The team's design approach was inspired by the multiple ecologies of Las 
Vegas itself – the dynamic and rugged beauty of the Mojave Desert, Las Vegas' 
early adoption of modern architecture, and the city's enthusiastic embrace of 
spectacle. The Drew will weave these seemingly contradictory conditions into a 
new quixotic environment."

Drew Las Vegas will be DS+R's first Las Vegas concept and among its first 
forays into hospitality. DS+R's work has been recognized with WSJ Magazine's 
2017 Architecture Innovator of the Year Award, the American Federation of the 
Arts 2018 Cultural Leadership Award; the National Design Award from the 
Smithsonian and the Brunner Prize from the American Academy of Arts and 
Letters. Their international portfolio of work includes the High Line, the 
redesign of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts Campus, and The Shed in 
New York; The Broad contemporary art museum in Los Angeles; Zaryadye Park in 
Moscow; and the Museum of Image and Sound in Rio de Janeiro. 

"We are incredibly excited about being part of the Las Vegas landscape. Robust 
demand drivers continue to create an imbalance of hotel inventory supply and 
demand. The Drew is poised to not only capitalize on this imbalance, but also 
offer visitors a new marquee luxury resort with a distinctive, compelling 
concept.  This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our team and our 
partners," shared Witkoff.  

With a confirmed opening date in the second quarter of 2022, Drew Las Vegas has 
also kicked off its sales efforts to group customers. The initial response to 
the 3,780-room resort has been overwhelmingly positive as groups look for new 
ideas and a fresh perspective.
