The 112-acre MGM Grand opened in December 1993 at a cost of $1.1 billion. It was the world's largest hotel at the time, with four 30-story towers, 5,044 rooms and 751 suites.
The next year, MGM sold it for $110 million to Las Vegas Sands, a new company formed by the owners of The Interface Group, including Sheldon Adelson, Richard Katzeff, Ted Cutler, Irwin Chafetz and Jordan Shapiro. The same year, it was licensed by the Nevada Gaming Commission, and Adelson became a casino magnate.
