  • The Venetian and the Palazzo Las Vegas Fun Facts
    The Venetian and The Palazzo Las Vegas Fun Facts The Venetian Las Vegas With the addition of The Palazzo to The Venetian, the combined properties have more than 7,000 suites, making this “under one roof” space the largest hotel in the world. The London Sunday Mail called The Venetian one of the seven “Grandest Hotels in the World.” In 2014, TripAdvisor named The Venetian the world’s most extraordinarily designed hotel. Combined, The Venetian and Palazzo house more than 2.3 million square feet of meeting space, 1 million square feet of retail space, and more than 30 restaurants. The Venetian lobby features 25-foot-high columns made of solid Botticino marble, imported from Italy. The Venetian Colonnade’s marble floor was hand fitted and modeled of the floor of the Church of Santa Maria del Rosario in Venice. The Campanile tower is 315 ft. tall, nearly as tall as the 323-ft. original in Venice. The Palazzo Las Vegas The Palazzo is 50 stories tall. There are no 4th, 13th, or 14th floors in the building. The Palazzo is the second tallest building in Nevada at 639.5 feet. The Palazzo contains 233,000 cubic yards of concrete. That equals 19,417 fully loaded concrete trucks—enough concrete to build a six-foot wide sidewalk from The Venetian all the way to the northeast corner of Yellowstone National Park. The Palazzo features the only two-story porte cochere in Nevada with one level for drop off and another for pick up. With remarkable attention to detail, 70 different types of finishes were used throughout the property.

  • Gender Discriminatory Pricing and Admission Policies in Las Vegas Establishments
    A GUY WALKS INTO A BAR: GENDER DISCRIMINATORY PRICING AND ADMISSION POLICIES IN LAS VEGAS ESTABLISHMENTS Shana S. Brouwers* I. INTRODUCTION In a city whose advertising slogan winks and purrs to potential tourists worldwide that “What Happens Here Stays Here,”1 it comes as no surprise that many visitors arrive in Las Vegas expecting to indulge their forbidden desires. For a large number of these visitors, the self-gratification includes attending one or more of the famed Las Vegas Strip’s plethora of high-end nightclubs, where the alcohol flows freely at upward of ten dollars per drink,2 the lights are low enough to make every face a study in seduction, and the music pulses so loudly that conversation can exist only via the body language spoken on the crowded dance floor. Visitors might also decide to display or ogle vast amounts of flesh at one of the increasingly popular poolside “day clubs”— where the desert’s scorching daytime temperatures encourage patrons to order one chilled fruity drink after another—or a “European pool,” where already- skimpy bikini tops are optional and, frankly, discouraged.3 Whatever the choice, the observant visitor is likely to notice two things: (1) sex (or the illu- sion thereof) sells, and (2) many “hot spots” presume that men will buy access for a higher price. Specifically, many establishments charge men higher prices than they charge women to gain entry and to imbibe. * Juris Doctor Candidate 2011, William S. Boyd School of Law, University of Nevada, Las Vegas. 1 The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) debuted this slogan in 2003, and recently resurrected it when attempts to market Las Vegas as a blue-collar, discount destination proved fruitless even in the currently depressed economy.
