Isn't that Sadd, too, they tore down one of the nicest most recognizeable Casino's out there too, the Star Dust, to end up in the end, having an empty dirt lot, with chain length fence.
as of December 2013 anyway when I stayed 9 days & nights out there, it was still an empty lot.
originally the Boyd Group owners of Sams Town were gonna build a New Casino out there, but, the economy tanked back in 2008 and they backed out and sold the property for a loss to some Orient Investors who are now supposedly gonna build luxury hi-rise condo's, supposedly .
They also just blew up a well known Hotel out there, can't remember what it was called, and again more supposed Luxury Hi Rise condo's

?????
far as I'm concerned Vegas is gone, they Wall Street Crooks have ruined Vegas as we knew it !
and I didn't really appreciate having to trip around familys with their 2 to 14 yr.old kids out there either running amuck all over the place.
Well Frank Rosenthaul was right, what he said about Vegas, after he left it !!
