Watch Circa grow — from dirt to 35 floors in 20 months by Richard N. Velotta of Las Vegas Review-Journal

“Building the tallest building in downtown Las Vegas was already a daunting challenge based on strict timeline constraints. Circa owner Derek Stevens knew he had to open by December to meet lending covenants. So that became the target. When the coronavirus hit, a new challenge emerged. Social distancing was implemented, meaning no more than four construction workers could use the slow-moving construction elevator at a time. That’s when Stevens adopted a new strategy to complete the first five floors of the building for an Oct. 28 opening with the hotel rooms to follow in December.“
