CityCenter was conceived as a seven-building mixed-use urban complex that is the largest privately funded construction project in United States history. At 600 feet Aria is the tallest structure at CityCenter. The firm of Argentine-American architect Cesar Pelli, known for designing the world's tallest buildings, conceived of the stunning curved glass and steel high-rise towers that form the structure. The sophistication of the appointments caused Popular Mechanics to gush that Aria is possibly "the most technologically advanced hotel ever built." Aria is one of the ten largest hotels in the world, with more than 4,000 guest rooms. The pool area is large enough to accommodate 50 cabanas amid tropical landscaping. There are 16 restaurants including Bar Masa by Masa Takayama who flies Bluefin Tuna from the Japanese coast to the kitchen at at Aria four times a week.
