End of the Desert Inn – Old Las Vegas Strip Icon
Demolition of the Desert Inn Augusta Tower on October 23, 2001. The Desert Inn closed in 2000 after a 50-year operating history. The Augusta tower shown here was the first implosion which made way for the construction of Wynn Las Vegas. The remaining towers (Palms and St. Andrew) were imploded in November, 2004 to make way for the construction of Wynn Encore. Video clip by Greg Clarke.
