Pre-opening vacation ownership sales are projected to begin in the summer of 2005.

Located on a 10-acre site at the north end of the Las Vegas Strip, the first 283 units of HGVClub on the Las Vegas Strip, located in a 28 story tower offering spectacular views of the famous Strip and surrounding areas, opened for occupancy in November 2003, and are nearly one third sold.
