You are probably thinking of what was to be a full scale recreation for the early 90s Las Vegas Downtown redevelopment project. The Enterprise was the winning concept for the big Downtown attraction but when the CEO of Paramount didn’t sign off on it, the runner up was built instead: The Freemont Experience.
It was literally down to the CEO saying “Yes”. Financing was provided by the downtown casinos; land was provided by the city; the city officials including the mayor were on board; the president of Paramount Studios; and their licensing division: everything was in place.

Yeah, that sounds right.
The King of Jordan wanted a Star Trek theme park.
