Singapore reaches for the stars
Names such as Daniel Libeskind, who designed the Freedom Tower planned for the site of the Twin Towers, are among possible candidates to design an eye-catching casino for the city.
In a bid to put Singapore’s skyline on the map the city-state has invited gaming companies to submit proposals for two separate mega-money resorts. Expected to cost up to $5billion, authorities have made it clear that the winning bid will be an architectural icon.
Whoever wins the bid it is clear that the new casino will continue the recent tradition of expensive, ‘designer’ buildings in Asia.
Authorities hope such a building will have a significant positive effect on tourism.
