American Dream in East Rutherford, the world-class retail, tourist and entertainment destination, releases a new set of digital renderings and a computer-generated fly-over video of the completed project. The images and video feature a more contemporary, pristine aesthetic, and were created by prominent design firm GH+A Design Studios.

“Transforming the exterior design of the property has been an essential part of our plan for the project from the very beginning,” said Don Ghermezian, president of Triple Five Worldwide. “Our vision is to create an elegant and visually exciting façade that will showcase the exceptional retail and entertainment destinations found inside American Dream.”
