Expanding the Strip
Posted: Sun Nov 30, 2008 2:23 pm
We have not done too much around the Strip - just drove down it once after all the rain. As always Vegas is growing. On the strip they are building a giant mega building complex called City Center. They were leveling the ground when we left here 1 1/2 years ago. It is supposed to all be done in about a year. All the buildings at once. Right now there are 8200 construction workers working 3 shifts 24 hours a day to finish it. For those of you familiar with the Strip it is between the Monte Carlo and the Belliago. Will employee lots of people when it is done.
picture of my favorite toy store - the Vegas Frys - electronic store - entrance is a slot machine - even sounds like one as you pass through it
Rained for 2 and 1/2 days now it is 70 degrees out - beautiful. Have only gone in the Wynn casino so far to look around. Want to go in the Belliago to see the Christmas decorations. Maybe later today. We don't gamble so we just look around.
