But behind that huge \u201cprivacy\u201d fence, construction crews are working diligently to get that new guitar shaped hotel in place. They\u2019ve spent several months clearing the land and digging down to set a new foundation. And now, you can actually start to see how things are going to come together.

Penta Building Group is leading the construction of the new tower, while McCarthy Building Companies is managing the renovation of the Mirage hotel. The guitar-shaped skyscraper is expected to reach approximately 660 feet in height, with its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thisweekingambling.com\/the-fontainebleau-december-grand-opening\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1490\">grand opening<\/a> slated for 2027.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"408\" data-end=\"680\">Hard Rock International, owned by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semtribe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Seminole Tribe of Florida<\/a>, purchased t<span class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem] transition-colors duration-100 ease-in-out\">he Mirage in December 2022.
