GreenDoberman Posted December 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Lucky Dragon and SLS both teetering on financial collapse. No buyers lined up either. Cosmopolitan is going to be a non-gaming hotel, possibly lease out the casino to a sub-concession. Steve Wynn bought the Alon property, old news.

Balco Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Fuck the Cromwell. Damn I miss the Barbary Coast. I miss the quaint sportsbook. The small hotel where you were just steps from your room from the Strip. I miss the Victorian room and the Chinese specials they had on the menu. Fuck the Cromwell.Barbary Coast was my favorite along with a former frequent player there in Jimmy the Greek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeybagadonuts Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Barbary Coast was my favorite along with a former frequent player there in Jimmy the Greek.Drais which was in the basement there was one of my favorite places. Great food and a good after hours place. Now it’s on the roof of the Cromwell and is like every other Vegas club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it’s on the roof of the Cromwell and is like every other Vegas club.When I worked at Caesars would close down the book on weekends around 2-2:30 then head over to Drais with some of my customers. Saw all kinds of ridiculous shit there, many of the chicks would leave Pure around that time and walk across the street to Drais. I really miss those days, probably would be dead by now if I kept keeping that lifestyle, but had a helluva time for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That always made me laugh.Was unsurpassed in Vegas for picking up stragglers. In the years I was going, maybe 2002-2007, drugs were pretty much consumed openly as well.

Bfo Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 and yet my real estate agent sends me messages about how great everything is in las vegasSupposedly still a large amount of hidden inventory of foreclosure houses out there. Not sure if I believe it or not, they keep saying how low the number of houses for sale is, but in my area in the southwest they have literally been building new housing on every corner the last few years. My property value has been increasing substantially almost every year since I bought in 2010, but appears to be slowing down. Area seems to be getting more diversified in the last couple years as well. Being white and scared it has me starting to look around in Summerlin and maybe selling mine before any major price drop hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
