Random Vegas
After a 4 month remodeling and a rebranding, in 1963, Lucky Casino, formerly known as Lucky strike, reopened with the largest sign in the city of Las Vegas at 160 feet tall. It held that titled until it was surpassed in 1964 by the Dunes turret marquee towering 180 feet tall. Lucky Casino is now the middle part of Golden Nugget Fremont St frontage.

So much development goodness in this picture it’s not hard to see why @summacorp shared it. Set in what looks like 1993 based on the various projects in various states of progress. Front and center, we see the massive MGM Grand theme park and Grand Garden Arena under construction. Beyond that we can see Luxor is also still under construction. Noticeably missing from the landscape is NYNY and Mandalay Bay. Here we still see Hacienda occupying the space Mandalay Bay would one day call home.
