Las Vegas advisor: Big reveals expected on 2 arenas, stadium
Jan 05, 2025
Following a workman-like 2024, during which there were no significant casino openings, two major closings (Tropicana and Mirage), and lots of renovations and upgrades, 2025 looks have a different profile. While there are no big openings scheduled again this year, details of several projects will be revealed, and more importantly, a few up-in-the-air scenarios will be sorted out. Most anticipated among them are the fates of the still-in-limbo Las Vegas Athletics baseball stadium, which may or may not become a reality on the former Tropicana site, and the location of two proposed NBA arenas. Also, construction is expected to start on several casino projects, including Dream on the south Strip, an as-yet-unnamed center-Strip resort from Golden Nugget owner Tilman Fertitta, Cadence Crossing on Boulder Highway and the conversion of the former Mirage to Hard Rock.
