Question of the Day — 30 Aug 2013

Just wondered how many acres of land the larger casinos on the Strip occupy? Seems like MGM Grand and Caesars Palace would have the most but maybe not. I always think about it when I visit.

Leaving aside CityCenter, which is a conglomeration of casino, hotels and condos – with Aria not listed separately -- here are the footprints of some of the major players on the Strip, as recorded by the Clark County Assessor. Those with fewer than 10 acres are unlisted:

  • Bally’s Las Vegas: 29.6 acres
  • Caesars Palace: 66.2 acres
  • Circus Circus: 68.35 acres
  • Flamingo: 19.4 acres
  • Harrah’s: 17.9 acres
  • Mandalay Bay: 118.9 acres
  • Excalibur/Luxor: 108 acres (the two properties are registered as one with the Clark County assessor)
  • MGM Grand: 91.8 acres
  • The Mirage: 77 acres
  • Monte Carlo: 24 acres
  • New York-New York: 20 acres
  • Palazzo: 43.6 acres
  • Paris-Las Vegas: 24 acres
  • Planet Hollywood: 11.8 acres
  • Riviera: 26.4 acres
  • Sahara/SLS Las Vegas: 17.5 acres
  • Treasure Island: 19.5 acres
  • Tropicana: 35.1 acres
  • Venetian: 43.6 acres
  • Wynn Las Vegas/Encore: 183.6 acres*

    • *--includes golf course

    So, despite the triple-digit size of Mandalay Bay, Steve Wynn still has bragging rights to the biggest package of land on the Strip.
