I stayed there a few months ago. Really enjoyed it. Very nice rooms/bathrooms, etc. I am curious to see if the Wynn lives up to it's hype.

The Forum Shops at Caesars is the most successful shopping mall in the world. Rent is 10 year waiting list and currently $1400.00 per square foot.
Venetian $1100.00
Aladdin $899.00

The Aladdin Bazaar is filthy.

The Aladdin Bazaar is filthy.

I'm sure, but right after it opened it was pretty interesting.

Cesar's shopping mall is impressive. Has the FAO Schwartz been replaced? My impression of Cesar's is colored by the constant construction they were under the last few years I saw them.

I love the Venetian. I love the shopping (though there are too many "dead areas" for my tastes) and the casino. I even love the lobby, though the tesselated floor can be a bit much!

There used to be a really great Italian/Steak/lobster place butted up right against the Venetian property. It was constantly threatened that they would build more towers for the Venetian and kick them out. I want to say it was the Rosewood, but trying to find it on the Internet that's either the wrong name or they've been forced to move.

I miss my Comdex trips. Now I only get to go to Austin twice a year and, this May, I'm getting to go to San Francisco. Now that city I used to know. I look forward to seeing what they've done with the dining in downtown since I was last there.

Really off the wall question, since it sounds like your are a LV resident. You wouldn't happen to know Dick Goran, of REXX Reference Summary Handbook fame, would you?

I hate computers. I just posted these on my own business website! I'm so annoyed, they show up in both preview and on my thread.

The Bellagio Fountain Show is my favorite.

Mine too. The Bellagio fountains playing to Singing in the Rain is great.

We saw Steve Wynn's art collection while it was still at the Bellagio, it was very impressive. Even the "modern" art was very good, and the Rembrandt was... a Rembrandt!

I was wondering how long it would take for a reply like yours to show up.

I don't gamble, I'm here because of the economy in a special material category.

There are many fine places to visit, eat and go to Church on Sunday.

This thread is about the buildings and sights to see.
