They have now officially renamed Xanadu as the "American Dream Meadowlands". When completed in 2013 it will be one of the largest malls in America expected to draw 60 million visitors a year. It will house the largest ferris wheel in the country, an aquarium, a theme park complete with three roller coasters, an indoor water park with a beach and North America's first indoor ski slope that will be open year round.
The $3.7 billion project is expected to generate 9,000 construction jobs and is being subsidized with $200 million in sales tax grants from the state.
