A Peek at What's Happening Downtown REDISCOVER Downtown Volume IV, 2013 A Peek At What’s Happening Downtown Those of you who have been following closely know there is a lot happening in downtown Las Vegas, where an urban renaissance is fully underway! Here is a pictorial sampling of a few of the over 70 projects either recently completed or currently under development downtown. Several new places have opened in the Fremont East Entertainment District. These include Park on Fremont (pictured to the left) on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Fremont Street. Next-door is a new Radio City Pizzeria. Both opened this March. A topping out ceremony was held in late March for the $35 million, 11-story Federal Justice Tower, currently being built on Las Vegas Boulevard next to the Lloyd D. George Federal Courthouse. This halfway point marks the phase where the facade will be placed on the building and internal construction will begin. The 140,000-square- foot, Class A office development will house the executive and administrative offices of four federal government agencies. Approximately 300 employees will work in this building. In addition, a total of over 450 local construction workers are expected to be employed in building this facility. The estimated completion date is December 2013. Family-owned Simpo Sandwich recently opened on Charleston Closed since 2006, the former Lady Luck complex will re-open in Boulevard in the late 2013 as the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino. Total downtown area. renovation costs will exceed $100 million. The revitalized, 300,000- (Photo by J. Johns.) square-foot complex will include 650 rooms in two towers, over 15,000 square feet of new meeting space, a 35,000-square-foot rooftop pool area and dining venues. Developers also promise gaming al fresco on nearby Third Street. Downtown Grand and the Mob Museum anchor Downtown3rd, a five-block metropolitan center under development that will eventually include 18 restaurants and bars and provide outdoor space for events. A Peek Around Downtown, continued… Rachel’s Kitchen is the first retail operation that has opened on the ground floor of the Ogden residential tower in downtown off Las Vegas Boulevard. Opened this past March, the 2,500-square- foot restaurant serves an assortment of salads, sandwiches, pasta, burgers, wraps, smoothies, fresh squeezed juices and more. Breakfast items are offered all day. Beer, wine and champagne are served. Plans are for more retail operations to open soon at the Ogden. West Las Vegas residents now have another nearby full-service grocery store to shop at since the opening of a Dollar General Market. Located at the intersection of Martin L. King and Lake Mead boulevards, this $4 million, 21,000-square-foot operation opened in January 2013. The development created 40 permanent positions and generated 250 construction jobs. Two new dining locations have opened up at the Shoppes At Lewis, located conveniently across from the downtown Regional Justice Center. Get your java on, as well as enjoy smoothies, breakfast and lunch items at Moxie Java Café. Another lunchtime option is Anthony’s Pizza, which is located next door. Both opened in February 2013 Promoted by developers as “an urban mall,” the Shoppes At Lewis offer17,000 square feet of retail, law and bail bond offices, as well as a food court that features outdoor seating. The food court will include a west coast franchise called Casa Rosa Mexican, Kevin’s 1950s Diner, Jury Room Food and Spirits and others. Tenants will open at various times throughout 2013.

  • THE LAST SPIKE IS DRIVEN! the PACIFIC RAILROAD IS COMPLETED! II the POINT of JUNCTION IS 1,086 MILES WEST of the MISSOURI RIVER, and 690 EAST of Vi SACRAMENTO CITY
    ATIONAL GOLDEN SPIKE CENTENNIAL COMMISSION OFFICIAL PUBLICATION MBPPP GOLDEN SP KE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION COMMISSION "What is past is prologue. ..." Shakespeare's words epitomize the spirit of the nation's railroads as they look to the challenges of the future while celebrating the centennial of an achievement that still stands as one of the great milestones in American history. That event was the completion of the first transcontinental railway system with the Driving of the Golden Spike at Promontory, Utah, on May 10, 1869. It was hailed at the time as an impossible dream come true. And, indeed, it was. Its significance was summarized by the late President John F. Kennedy when he said: "We need not read deeply into the history of the United States to become aware of the great and vital role which the railroads have played in the opening up and developing of this great nation. As our frontier moved westward, it was the railroads that bore the great tide of America to areas of new opportunities and new hopes." The railroad industry is justly proud of its past and its contribution to the growth, development and economic might of America. But, again, what's past is prologue. Railroadmen see vast changes occurring in their industry. Today — a hundred years from Promontory — the Iron Horse has lost most of his passen­ ger train glamour. But he's still the workhorse of the transportation stable, hauling almost as much freight as all the newer modes combined. New all-time freight records in 1968 are a significant keynote to the future in railroading.
