Opening in 2019, American Dream, a retail and entertainment complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey is finally becoming a reality after nearly 16 years of site planning and development, different owners and more than $5 billion of investment.
It has certainly been worth the wait, with the impressive five million square foot (464,500 m²) structure housing both retail and entertainment/attractions/dining outlets – in a 45/55% split – along with a proposed plan to build North America’s largest indoor water park.
The external façade of the building, owned by Canada-based Triple Five Worldwide, has been completely revamped, replacing the locally badged “eyesore” used on an earlier guise, called Xanadu.
Of particular note – and dominating a large section of the building’s roofline – is the huge 99 x 239 ft (30 x 73 m) barrel-vault skylight, created using the Pilkington Planar™ system, with the glazing exploiting the functional and aesthetic capabilities of the SentryGlas® ionoplast interlayer from Trosifol™.
