We were in Las Vegas the week before Christmas and happened to notice the La Concha Motel being torn down. We remembered when we first saw it in the early 1960s! What's happening to the property it was on?

We're coming to Las Vegas in April. The last time my friend was there was in 1996. What new casinos have opened since then?

I understand a number of years ago there was a tragic fire at what was then the MGM Grand that resulted in several deaths. How did such a tragedy occur and what steps have been taken since to ensure that it doesn't happen again?
