  • Las Vegas Review-Journal
    January 14, 2007 Copyright © Las Vegas Review-Journal Run of the millions Hubble Smith LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL By HUBBLE SMITH REVIEW-JOURNAL It's a buyer's market in Las Vegas — unless you're looking at luxury homes. While the median price of an existing home has flattened for the past year and may even be poised for a decline, the high-end market is soaring . James Beasley of Sotheby's International Realty just picked up a $12 million listing for a penthouse unit at Turnberry Place, the four-tower luxury condominium complex on Paradise Road. It's priced at about $2,000 a square foot, or twice the starting prices at Trump International Tower. "I don't think people grasp that for these premier high-rise units, people are willing to pay Manhattan prices," Beasley said. The luxury home market has had strong and consistent results, with prices climbing and sales steady, Beasley said in his third-quarter market report. There were 70 transactions at $1.5 million or more totaling $160 million in sales volume, up from $151.9 million the previous quarter. His brokerage recorded the highest sale of the year in September at $8.5 million. "In this last year, we have seen the market shift into a healthier and more stable market, a market that is yielding more consistent home values adjusting from the boom in prices during 2004," Beasley said. "Since the growth fundamentals have not shifted and population growth continues in Las Vegas, our company is bullish on the future outlook of our market." He sees Mountain's Edge in southwest Las Vegas Valley and Lake Las Vegas in east Henderson as key growth areas.

  • The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle
    The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle By Stefan Johannes Al A dissertation submitted in the partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Professor Greig Crysler Professor Ananya Roy Professor Michael Southworth Fall 2010 The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle © 2010 by Stefan Johannes Al Abstract The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle by Stefan Johannes Al Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Over the past 70 years, various actors have dramatically reconfigured the Las Vegas Strip in many forms. I claim that behind the Strip’s “reinventions” lies a process of symbolic destruction. Since resorts distinguish themselves symbolically, each new round of capital accumulation relies on the destruction of symbolic capital of existing resorts. A new resort either ups the language within a paradigm, or causes a paradigm shift, which devalues the previous resorts even further. This is why, in the context of the Strip, buildings have such a short lifespan. This dissertation is chronologically structured around the four building booms of new resort construction that occurred on the Strip. Historically, there are periodic waves of new casino resort constructions with continuous upgrades and renovation projects in between. They have been successively theorized as suburbanization, corporatization, Disneyfication, and global branding. Each building boom either conforms to a single paradigm or witnesses a paradigm shift halfway: these paradigms have been theorized as Wild West, Los Angeles Cool, Pop City, Corporate Modern, Disneyland, Sim City, and Starchitecture.
