Tesovara said that the air inside the casino will be of a higher standard than other casinos because of the ventilation technology inside Aria.  CityCenter has sought many means to reduce its carbon footprint, such as installing low-flow water faucets on a mass scale.  MGM Mirage energy chief Cindy Ortega said that she was shooting for just a Silver Star rating for CityCenter but decided to go beyond what was necessary to ensure that level of requirements was attained.

The gold-star rating that CityCenter has received makes Aria the world’s largest green building.  This beat out Vegas’ previous record from the Sand’s Palazzo as the largest green building, which attained silver certification last year.
