Bunnyfi sh was also the author of the North Las Vegas Downtown Masterplan, which is expected to generate new development for that area.

    ABOUTWE ASPIRE TO BEUS FIRST, UNIQUE, OR BEST IN EVERYTHING WE DO. Downtown Project was founded in January 2012 with the idea that if you accelerate co-learning, collisions, and connectedness in the city’s urban core, productivity, innovation, growth, and happiness will fall into place. Zappos.com CEO Tony Hsieh made a personal investment of $350 million toward helping with the revitalization of part of downtown Las Vegas. His investment became Downtown Project, which has allocated roughly $200 million in real estate and development, $50 million in small businesses, $50 million in technology and startups through VTF Capital, and $50 million in arts and culture, education, and healthcare. A large portion of our investment was allocated toward real estate and development in the Fremont East/East Village districts of downtown Las Vegas. We own approximately 45 acres, and we’re activating our holdings in an organic way, rather than through a top-down master plan. We’ve purposely activated buildings that are not directly next to one another in order to encourage people to walk a little farther into the neighborhood, which increases opportunities for collisions. The roughly $200 million to real estate and development includes approximately 45 acres of land in and around the Fremont East and East Village districts, and approximately 11 businesses that we wholly own and operate. So far we’ve invested in approximately 50 small businesses ranging from restaurants, bars, and a microbrewery to retail, including a bookstore, a record store/recording studio, and a toy store. Downtown Project has also invested in services, from a membership-based dog park and doggie day care to an app-based laundry and dry cleaning business.
