Cosmopolitan to open in December

The much maligned Cosmopolitan is aiming for a December 2010 opening.

Cosmopolitan CEO John Unwin said the hotel's amenities, including 13 restaurants, a spa, nightclub, 150,000 square feet of meeting and convention space and retail stores, would open in mid-December with the casino and the bulk of its 2,995 rooms.

I'm happy to see that Cosmo will definitely be opening. December seems to be a popular time to open a new hotel. The last two major hotels to open in Vegas both opened in December (Encore and City Center). I wonder if the city will be able to absorb that many rooms by then. If not that just means more great rates for the tourists.
