Theme idea for a new resort = retro! Build it up with the ‘boomerang’ motifs, vintage slot machines (if they would still be legal for gaming) at the center of the casino, and raked-back room-tower architecture.
parking sure was no hard task back then…
why would they tear down another Legendary Casino for another new gaudy place, when the LV and Nevada eceonomy in in the toilet ??
well we still have the Riviera, but rumor has it not for long! have you seen MGM’s new City Center project yet? or as the locals call it “The Cancer on The Strip” talk about a money pit, it is God awful!
doesn’t get any better. Thank You
This is AWESOME!
