Having worked there for 3 years, I can guarantee you that the employees only areas in the basement levels is a city on it's own. I can easily clock 25k-30k steps during work every day.
"You can't think about it as individual buildings, you have to think about it as a piece of city. It's much more of a symphony than it is a sonata." I couldn't have summarised this any better myself having just been last month. This is why Singapore is so far ahead in terms its architecture and city planning, because it all just works together so beautifully. The interconnectivity and accessibility is unlike anything I've ever seen, a true marvel of engineering resulting from nothing short of pure ambition.
@@mikehammond7277 From my experience this wasn’t the case at all. It’s directly connected to the city’s metro system and is one of the most popular stops. There’s something for everyone there, the light show they have is awesome and costs nothing. Not to mention they have Gardens by the Bay right behind which again is mostly free apart from a few sections which charge for entry. If I lived there I would go there often just to enjoy a nice walk because it’s such a beautiful place.
@@mikehammond7277 as a local, yes we dont really go to the casino and hotel, its free entry to casino only for tourists. but the other parts of the area including the convention center, the mall, the art science museum, sands theater everything are frequented by locals. so its a good mix of facilities for both locals and tourists alike
Totally agree took workers from 3 countries to pull together the Seven Star Hotel. Over $7 billion to build hotel and gardens. So yeah, it’s a real Marvel.
I live in Singapore and I have stayed in this hotel 3 times. It's not the most luxurious by far, in-fact, the rooms are as good as any high-end hotel. The infinity pool is cold and always crowded. It's hyped by social media and the tourists.
Thanks for sharing this information. I love seeing Singapore grow, and maybe they'll expand it more someday when it comes to this Hotel. The design is complex and unique, but I think that's what I like about it.
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of going to Singapore and watch Marina Bay Sands. Next year I want to visit the Sky Park. Don’t forget the light and music show at Marina Bay in the evening. It’s awesome! 😎👍🏽 I’m half Dane and half Singaporean. But I was blown away when I saw Marina Bay Sands. Love it! 🥰
Marina Bay Sands is an extraordinary project and undertaking compared to Singapore in 1960. It will be fascinating to see how the new CAIRO linear city progresses. I hope it’s a huge success for Egypt.😊😮w
@@KingCircles But, this construction was over the top! Being mechanically inclined myself, with no contractors license, I feel confident I could oversee, and build a 5000sf home as that's not too complicated compared to the Sand's Resort.✌🗽
This project has long term success written all over it… Massively complicated engineering project ✅ Country with poor building control ✅ Bad substrate and footings ✅
It’s such a difficult challenge not only for the owner but also for all the managers. Each of them plays essentially different roles but has the same goal of contributing and succeeding🎉
I saw this building during construction with the “ship” part built half way. It is still an amazing building to visit and while I am not a fan of casinos, I completely admire the design the design and engineering feat.
To watch a nighttime Grand Prix (the pinnacle of automobile racing technology) from the vista afforded by the improbable SkyPark (one of the pinnacles of modern structural engineering technology) ….must be truly a present day sci-fi phenomenon become real. Akin to pondering the future of humanity’s reach from the top office of the Tyrell Building or stepping aboard the bridge of the Enterprise. God I love Spark!
hats off to all involved - from planning, designing to all the engineering marvels involved in making this land mark of a structure! Unbelievable what can we as humans come up with, with all the tools, intellect and intelligence, knowledge and minds working together on the same page. Salutes!
Thank you for the video. It was very interesting to watch. I used to do high rises back in the 80's but they were nothing like this! Great job everyone.
Wow... Awesome video. Damanding job. I actually caught myself holding my breath until I watched another demand become met throughout the video. You gotta love intense job's❤
Amazing construction, so many unknown challenges for the Engineers, welders especially those metal lifters to a heights that is unbelievable heights, by watching the commentaries of those Engineers i don't doubt they have this kind of unknown butterfly feelings but after the pieces are in place together this can make them breath easy, & another projects to share with one another for solution, truly magnificent construction, one of each kind of Resort Casino in our World that transform how economy move on
It’d be a lot crazier if the ‘stilts’/Skyscrapers supporting the top deck crossing all 3… but there’s a reason they split at the bottom. It forms 6 Spread Legs holding the structure vs. 3 base points.
We tried to visit this tower once on New Year’s Eve but the ques lasted for forever so had give up as had other engagements booked. The whole place was very beautiful. We took a boat tour around the area which I would highly recommend doing if you get a chance while visiting Singapore.
Aesthetically I'm not a fan of this structure, but I admire the engineering and the skill that went into it's construction. Thanks for sharing this video.
The stainless steel artwork was not pretty to me. If it lit up like they showed in animation it would have been amazing. But not lit up it looks like nothing.
this video was really well-made, and I loved the stunning visuals of Singapore's casino resort! however, I have to say that while the luxury is impressive, part of me feels like such extravagant places can overshadow the cultural richness of the city itself. it's like, are we losing a bit of what makes Singapore unique in the pursuit of glam? just a thought!
I like that Sheldon Aldoson..I also like to think that thats how I'd be as a billionaire if I were ever so lucky.. Such an amazing project, engineered by the very best!..including from the boardroom, through the offices AND eventually the scaffolding! Brilliant!👌
Stay on the Harbor Side facing the GARDENS, it’s awesome. But the pool makes even the hardened road warrior humble. Rich or not Everyone in the pool feels special and expect to see lots of selfies it’s fun.
Fantastic video! Keep this safe, so that in 3K years when humans find this, they’ll think aliens or the Annunaki from planet Nibiru helped us built it. 😂
Figured, I thought they were saying a cuss word but I guess people are offended sensitively, when I was younger people were taking everything funny, but now it’s the complete opposite…
Sands LV has most of their capital committed in Macao and Singapore and has for years, because gaming is still the profit driver in those locations. Las Vegas is more diversified, and margins are smaller.
Money is neither decadent nor empoverished. Money is a tool. And because of it. Creativity and imaginative endeavors are made possible. Do you shame others for how they spend their money. If private money built this then it’s none of your business. But if you were taxed by a government which subsidized it then direct your energy to defending freedom from the WEF, CCP and their totalitarian partners.

@Anarkey what type of job did you have there? They hiring any gaming dealers there?
That's about 12 miles a day. I worked in a 100 room nursing home and clocked that on a good day. Was only about 25,000 square feet

Ain't that the truth!

I would imagine that this Casino/ Hotel is a place that the local people cannot afford to go in there and spend some time and money.

I agree. Other hotels like The Raffles, Capella, Fullerton Bay are much more luxurious
I take it the thing is more hype than reality. Very disappointing.
Ya blame the white architects & designers
Thanks for sharing this information. I love seeing Singapore grow, and maybe they'll expand it more someday when it comes to this Hotel. The design is complex and unique, but I think that's what I like about it.
Ay man, if you're not satisfied, gimme one of those hotel tickets one time 👍😁

No rick, no reward.
That dang Rick. Always being the center of attention.
I've always loved this structure, but had no idea how complex it's construction was, just insane!👍🗽
Any construction is very complex.
@@KingCircles But, this construction was over the top! Being mechanically inclined myself, with no contractors license, I feel confident I could oversee, and build a 5000sf home as that's not too complicated compared to the Sand's Resort.✌🗽
i find building architecture and construction extremely interesting
It has no art according my taste.
@@urimtefiki226 Correct. I have not visited this place yet. However, when I do there will be Art 😀
This project has long term success written all over it…
Massively complicated engineering project ✅ Country with poor building control ✅ Bad substrate and footings ✅

Inside Singapore is truly the most extraordinary thing I've ever seen, the megastructures are the best...👍
What a gaudy piece of art to hang in the atrium. I see the art and the artist are truly matched.
i hate it
I saw this building during construction with the “ship” part built half way. It is still an amazing building to visit and while I am not a fan of casinos, I completely admire the design the design and engineering feat.
How long ago was that? When was this resort completed?

And that's why Singapore is the most educated country in the world,I wish one day to visit this beautiful country 😊
A modern day architectural, engineering, and construction masterpiece! ❤
This is just mindboggling....

I think art is beginning to be valued by how difficult it is for an engineer to install.
We tried to visit this tower once on New Year’s Eve but the ques lasted for forever so had give up as had other engagements booked. The whole place was very beautiful. We took a boat tour around the area which I would highly recommend doing if you get a chance while visiting Singapore.
I've noticed a lot of these projects are run by British engineers
Singapore is a British slave colony maybe if you were more book learned you would know that
Sheldon Adelson, the guy who created and financed it, was American.
Aesthetically I'm not a fan of this structure, but I admire the engineering and the skill that went into it's construction. Thanks for sharing this video.
Fully agreed.
Agree. The horizontal structure ontop looks weird
Good people's of Singapore 🇸🇬

Swimming in that rooftop pool is amazing
Going up to the sky park is better value than the wheel :-)
Awesome wasabi 'crisps' :-)
Awesome and worth the money. Try to get on the side facing the GARDENS and wait for sun down. Amazing light shows
The stainless steel artwork was not pretty to me. If it lit up like they showed in animation it would have been amazing. But not lit up it looks like nothing.
At least not as hideous as 'The Angel of the North'.
So? At least the Marina Bay Sands attraction is good.
It will be scrapped in a few years.
Do they clean it?
@@tha92106just think that. What a pain to dust
This channel is so calming and always puts me to sleep. 🥰🥰🥰

Modern-day version of the pyramids. I'm such a sucker for modern structures. 😍
If you want to build in water, just use Roman cement. That stuff will hold up for 2 thousand years.
very fascinating 👍great report
Stay on the Harbor Side facing the GARDENS, it’s awesome. But the pool makes even the hardened road warrior humble. Rich or not Everyone in the pool feels special and expect to see lots of selfies it’s fun.
Garden side view is awesome at night
Yup been here twice and it’s very magnifique!❤
I so wish I can visit some day. What building. I'd love to visit Singapore. An amazing country.
Stayed there one night, on the 54th floor in 14-room suite. Quite nice.
This video is way dated now that Marina Bay Sands has been open for 14 years. The hand wringing is overblown.
I love Singapore.... Zimbabwe
Fantastic video! Keep this safe, so that in 3K years when humans find this, they’ll think aliens or the Annunaki from planet Nibiru helped us built it. 😂
Just curious what was the Narrator saying at 23:01 he was saying something about attempting but it was censor bleeped?
“Far more of a construction challenge than an artistic one.” Maybe the bleep was inadvertent?
Figured, I thought they were saying a cuss word but I guess people are offended sensitively, when I was younger people were taking everything funny, but now it’s the complete opposite…
Moshe Safdie turely made a work of art thank you for making and coming up with such a beautiful building
I would love to stay at this resort 😊
As a US Company... The Sands in Los Vegas. Why not invest in that in the USA?
Sands LV has most of their capital committed in Macao and Singapore and has for years, because gaming is still the profit driver in those locations. Las Vegas is more diversified, and margins are smaller.
Breathtakingly beautiful
Interesting, but I will continue to stay at Raffles when I go to Singapore.
I agree ,the Ritz-Carlton is always my go-to,
but it is awesome see.
Always a good to watch
I'm surprised some form mega project could be developed in the American hills of Kentucky or Tennessee.
É incrível acompanhar todo o processo
Anybody else here think Destin & Diana would geek out seeing this!?!?...
*Me too!...
Wtf was said at 23:01??!! That ‘beep’ scared the hell out of me.
The next time you feel that your medium term plans are experiencing endless setback and you feel stressed, watch this video.
How spectacular!!
imagine designing something like that (that crazy "sculpture") knowing that someone else has to build it for you
Techniquement admirable. Mais on a envie de choses plus simples, naturelles et rassurantes
23:00 i like to imagine the narrator said, “what he’s about to attempt is more of a fcking construction challenge than an artistic one” 😂
Completely fascinating.
Behold the awesome power of decadent casino money.
Money is neither decadent nor empoverished. Money is a tool. And because of it. Creativity and imaginative endeavors are made possible. Do you shame others for how they spend their money. If private money built this then it’s none of your business. But if you were taxed by a government which subsidized it then direct your energy to defending freedom from the WEF, CCP and their totalitarian partners.
No way, Adelson, imagine my complete surprise
The actual inside of this place not even shown. I watched the whole thing awaiting the material actually in the video description.
Employing Moshe should proof it against any future "911's" ... still an absolutely incredible project to pull off in just 3 years!
I don’t live there but this building needs to be renovated
What was beeped over at 23:00??
the kid yawning at 4:05 is hilarious
I honestly wondered why they weren't going to keep those cables inside tge concrete. There's no reason to remove them in my mind
Amazing structure, very ordinary hotel.
Que incrível ❤
23:00 why is there a bleep there?? did the narrator use a curse word?
the problem is will it stays strong longer?? for how long?? im scared on this design tho
awesome man 3:09
I would like to check this casino hotel out.
This is stress!! How does this not just buckle under its own slanted weight?
Imagine the weigh of the water of the pool on the top. Water is very heavy.

WTF is that at 22:59 HAHAHAHA
@JoshuaJEnriquez
Think the narrator got a bit too passionate
It may be an engineering achievement, but architecturally, it ain't much. Modern glass and metal towers with a soap dish on top. Who cares.
Moshe Safdie's insights at 4:27 give me those good chills.
One thing is for sure. That engineer hates that piece of art. Really truly hates it.
While trying to respect that big piece of art, how would any guest know if it wasn't made right????? Hey honey, that angle is way off.
How do they make sure each of the 16,000 project workers are qualified??! This is making me feel overwhelmed 😂😂🤒
What the heck is that bleep at 23:00?
How do you clean the giant cotton candy when it gets dirty in 5 years.
I’m still so confused by how they stabilize the ground and marine clay to make it able to hold huge buildings ?!!? 😂😅
Muito legal 😮😮😮
But where is the inside?
What was bleeped out at 23:00 ? lol that was pretty random
When life gives you lemons return them and get apples 🍎!! Youll be glad you did!😂🇨🇦
That sculptor is completely full of himself...
Singapore is WAY better than a place like Dubai. I don't see what the big deal is about Dubai at all.
WTF!!!???? DID HE JUST CUSS AT 23: ? MAN WAS THAT TRIPPY ON WEED
Sheldon Adelson died 2021
Now that ai is taking over the architect’s everyone is in trouble
They are really pushing the envelope with some of these structures, I mean what about earthquakes, Dubai is not immune😮
Nice
Who else sees their kids' slinky disaster in that "sculpture" hanging in that huge void?
