    The amount of progress from 1905 to 1935 alone is amazing. Imagine living in Las Vegas just during that time and all the change you would’ve seen.

    Great job! My favorite period is the neon 60’s. The new ceiling is cool, but Freemont looked so much prettier back then.

    Since the Vegas architecture is always changing so quickly, it’s easy to forget Vegas has a fairly long history!

    Excellent work! Brings back many memories from 50 years ago when I lived in LV. During 1973 I ran into Red Foxx playing slots at Binions, he was flanked by two big bodyguards. Great memories!

Macy was filmed in Reno, Nevada. 98% of the Cooler was filmed n Reno--they say in the movie it is based in Las Vegas...

    One thing about Vegas is that it's a city of economics first. There's no sentimentality to be had. If it's old, decrepit and no longer making money, it's going to get knocked down and something bigger and better is going to be built in its place. That's why the skyline and vibe changes so much. In 100 years, we won't even recognize Vegas anymore from what it is today. Heck, maybe even in just 20-30 years, that'll already be true.
