Michael Phillips, the president of Jamestown agrees and he believes the future of real estate is “the thoughtful integration of the virtual and physical worlds, optimized for user experience.” According to the announcement, the virtual One Times Square in Decentraland will be located at section -106, -119. The party will feature music and entertainment acts including “rooftop VIP lounges.”


There will also be live feed of the real-world Times Square ball drop celebration in New York. “The metaverse is an important part of the evolution of real estate and the built environment,” Phillips added. “Whereas physical real estate is largely limited to people with geographic proximity, the metaverse can give people around the world meaningful access to places through immersive virtual experiences.” Phillips continued: Recreating One Times Square in the Decentraland metaverse is part of a larger digital asset strategy to evolve and enhance our physical real estate for Web 3.0 and open new pathways for our assets to exist in multiple metaverses in the future.
