Hakkasan Signs to Dwarf Reference to MGM Grand

The front facade of MGM Grand will be consumed by all things Hakkasan. The resort is pushing forward with City permission to create new signage advertising the future 80,000-square-foot restaurant, lounge and nightclub, to be placed directly behind the 45-foot-tall bronze Leo the lion statue.

Created by the local YESCO sign company, the 7,299-square-foot animated visual "entry feature" in the middle of the wall would be flanked by 2,160-square-feet of two video displays. Behind these signs, the currently under construction wall will be covered by a geometric grillwork design.

During the Paradise Town Board Planning & Zoning approval process, there was temporary confusion concerning the correct pronunciation of "Hakkasan," of which the board ultimately remained uncertain, and when a board member became momentarily perplexed by the number of letter K's, believed the name of the venture as "Kardashian."
