A Disneyesque Arthurian castle abuts an Egyptian pyramid and the Statue of Liberty. A volcano explodes across the street from Venice’s Saint Mark’s Square. Truly, Las Vegas has shoul- dered aside Hollywood as America’s Dream Factory. Historian Michael Ventura calls Las Vegas “the last great mythic city that Western civilization will ever create”; art critic Robert Hughes calls Las Vegas “a work of art: bad art, but art nonetheless.” The extravagant pleasure palaces lining the Strip make a bold, brash architectural statement, with developers increasingly crowing about architectural integrity and authenticity. Not that we can see a lick of such things, apart from the meticulous attention to detail when creating scale replicas of international landmarks, whether half-size (the Eiffel Tower at the Paris hotel), full (the Venetian’s Doge’s Palace), or oversize (Luxor’s Sphinx). In Las Vegas the hotel business is a staggering success story. The city has a total room inventory of more than 135,000, about twice that of New York. The five properties at the intersection of Tropicana and the Strip alone contain more rooms than all of San Francisco. Yet the Strip has an amazing hotel occupancy level of around 90%. Development, expansion, and large-scale renovation continue unabated. Far and away the biggest hotel story of 2005 was the opening of the $2.7-billion Wynn Las Vegas by longtime casino mogul Steve Wynn. He bought the old Desert Inn and attached golf club, demolished everything, and erected his (quite literally) signature copper tower in their place. The debut of the Wynn spurred all kinds of competing big plans among the remaining unmerged casino conglomerates. The downmarket Bourbon Street closed in late 2005, and it faces likely destruction as its plot of land gets absorbed into larger, adjacent projects. The New Frontier will face the wrecking ball in early 2006 to make way for the new Trump International Hotel & Tower. And the Boardwalk gets flattened in mid-2006 under the footprint of the $6-billion CityCenter project. Visitors no longer need confine themselves to Vegas proper. Our favorite luxury resort can be found on a man-made lake in Henderson, in the form of the Lake Las Vegas Resort, a sprawling Mediterranean-style property that includes a Ritz- Carlton, Hyatt Regency, and chic shopping (and condo rentals) at MonteLago Village. The resort also offers three golf courses that feature both high desert and lakeside scenery. 05_773344 ch01.qxp 2/23/06 11:52 PM Page 16 16 Las Vegas possesses 8 of the world’s 10 largest hotels and 17 of the 20 largest in the United States. A 2,000-room prop- erty is considered average size here. No wonder they’re cities unto themselves, with everything from spas to bowling alleys, giving guests no reason to leave the hotel—and, more impor- tant, the casinos, since gaming is still the name of the game (note that main-floor elevator buttons are marked “C” for casino, instead of “L” for lobby). ACCOMMODATIONS In that respect, however, things have been changing here. Nongaming revenues are increasing at nearly quadruple the rate of gaming revenues, accounting now for over half of total income. Promoters these days talk of Las Vegas as a true resort, not merely a gambling destination. Every new hotel that’s built includes a massive spa, glorified pool area, and fitness facili- ties—not to mention gourmet eateries, name-brand shops, in- house attractions, and razzle-dazzle shows. Guest rooms themselves have been improving; they’re no longer dark, dingy, cramped chambers calculated to make guests flee to the casino. The typical directory of services looks like a small town’s phone book—and it’s printed in at least five languages (English, French, Spanish, Japanese, and German). Developers up the ante in a high-stakes gamble for the tourist dollar. Older hotels constantly receive face-lifts (befitting a city renowned for its plastic surgeons). In the newly upscale Vegas, kitschier properties like Circus Circus and Excalibur have “classed up” their cheap-motel fantasy-suite decor. In a tornado of remodeling, the MGM Grand slew the 80-foot roaring lion at its main entrance (which had spooked Asian gamblers to no end) and demolished the tacky Emerald City just inside (including the animatronic Dorothys, Totos, and Munchkins). Unfortunately, in the rush to play “Can you top this?” many hotels are constructed little better than mud huts in New Guinea (you may be able to hear your neighbors shower, celebrate their winnings, or consum- mate their quickie marriages). Typically, Strip resorts settle about 2 to 8 inches just after construction because they’re built on rock- like caliche; some sections of Mandalay Bay settled as much as 16 inches, requiring 500 steel pipes to be bored into its founda- tion to stabilize the tower.

  • The Naming of Gaming
    The Naming of Gaming Pauliina Raento Academy of Finland and William A. Douglass University of Nevada, Reno The naming of casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada, is an essential ingredient in the design of the city's entertainment landscape. More than 300 names have been used in the naming of gaming in Las Vegas since 1955. They occur in seven dominant patterns: 1) luck and good fortune, 2) wealth and opulence, 3) action, adventure, excitement and fantasy, 4) geography, 5) a certain moment, era, or season, 6) intimacy and informal- ity, and 7) "power words" commonly used in the naming of businesses. The categories are described and analyzed from the perspective of the evolution of Las Vegas. Regional variations between the Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, and suburban Las Vegas are also discussed. The names provide a powerful means of evoking senses of place, images, and identities for the casinos. They underscore the interpretative subjectivity and plurality of the relationship between people and commercial urban environments. Introduction We name people, things, and places to distinguish them from one another and to give them character. Often the names are commemorative and draw upon features (usually positive) of individuals and places. Buildings, streets and towns are named after other familiar places, historical events, and distinguished persons who have played a notable role in the shared past. As an example of the latter, over one quarter of the roughly 3,000 counties in the United States are named patriotically, most often commemorating a political figure (Zelinsky 1983, 6). Names of streets and buildings in capital cities and other centers of importance have special prestige.

    50 Ways Vegas Has Changed Since Frommer’s 1998 vegasbright.com/2017/03/22/50-ways-vegas-has-changed-since-frommers-1998/ By ShortArmsDeepPockets 3/22/2017 ShortArmsDeepPockets explores 50 Ways Vegas Has Changed since 1998. As I sat around daydreaming about my upcoming Vegas trip (#21 and counting), I got to reminiscing about my first trip. Back in 1999, I had picked up a discounted copy of Frommer’s 1998 travel guide for Las Vegas. It was slightly out of date by the time we traveled 18 months after its publishing date. Fast forward 18 years and that out-of-date guide is nothing short of a time machine! I dug it up out of storage and, within a few pages, realized I had struck historical and nostalgia gold. One could write an entire book about all the things that are different about Vegas from 1998 until today, but I tried to trim it to the top 50 changes. REST IN PEACE Some of the individuals mentioned in the Guide have passed into the Great Beyond. Noteworthy passings include: 50. Debbie Reynolds: In 1998, Debbie Reynolds was quite prominent on the Las Vegas scene, as subsequent entries will demonstrate. We lost Debbie in 2016, a day after the passing of her daughter Carrie Fisher. 49 Jackie Gaughan: Las Vegas icon Jackie Gaughan was best known for his ownership of the Plaza back in 1998 (“Jackie Gaughan’s Plaza”); however, over his 64-year career in the gaming industry he also owned the El Cortez, Gold Spike, Las Vegas Club, and other properties Downtown.

  • Bem Antes De Existir a the Strip, a Freemont Street No Centro Da Cidade De Las Vegas Era Um Núcleo De Diversão
    Las Vegas Introdução A cidade de Las Vegas é cenário (e freqüentemente personagem) de programas de TV de sucesso e de filmes importantes. Ela é uma central de notícias sobre celebridades e um lugar visitado por pessoas de todo o mundo. O que há nessa cidade relativamente jovem que a transformou em foco de interesse? Desde a chamada The Strip, que corta a cidade, até as encostas do Lake Mead ao sul, há muito mais em Las Vegas do que você possa imaginar. Há muitas informações que a maioria das pessoas não conhece sobre Las Vegas. Há um lado sensível que permeia sua história repleta de estrelas. Colonizadores mórmons vieram de Salt Lake City em meados do século 19, e trabalhadores de ferrovias construíram estradas para Las Vegas na década de 1890. Uma vila começou a se formar, e a cidade foi fundada em 15 de maio de 1905, com uma parada da ferrovia para aqueles que seguiam rumo ao oeste. O real surto de crescimento de Las Vegas pode ser identificado no ano de 1931, quando a Legislatura de Nevada formalmente legalizou o jogo. O gangster Bugsy Seigel inaugurou o Flamingo Hotel, em 1946, e a Las Vegas que hoje é conhecida como a "Capital Mundial do Entretenimento" nasceu. Desde a comunidade de arte incipiente no centro da cidade até as multimilionárias suítes na Las Vegas Boulevard, essa é uma cidade que cresceu de 5 mil para quase 2 milhões de habitantes em um século. Em 2005, um recorde de 38,6 milhões de pessoas visitaram essa jóia no deserto.
