Beautiful. Urban. Hip. Abstract. Sleek. - these words flood my mind when I think of Downtown Summerlin.
The layout of the place is confusing but it's navigable. The architecture and vibe of the place is Southern California-esque and is reminiscent of The Americana at Brand or The Grove in LA. It is probably the most aesthetically-pleasing shopping area outside of the strip.
Downtown Summerlin is 'random' defined and realized: there's an office building in the middle and there's shaded shopping/dining areas and outdoor shopping/dining areas and who knows? There might be an area underground too.
The rest of the businesses haven't reached completion but when fully open I look forward to noshing at MTO Cafe and Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill. This place is promising and offers more shopping and dining options (as if it weren't enough) for locals outside of 'that famous street' that people come here for. It doesn't seem to have annoying California tourists so that's a plus!
