We stand corrected

Stiffs & Georges has to regretfully retract part of last Friday’s “News Flash.” Yes, the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation (of whom more later) have bought 8.5 acres one block off the Las Vegas Strip. However, the parcel is to the west of Las Vegas Boulevard. The seemingly desirable Skyvue site remains unsold (or at least untransferred) until today. As eagle-eyed Las Vegas Advisor reader Peter Bijlsma writes, “The lot that was sold to The Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation is not the SkyVue site at the Strip. According to the Assessor records they bought the parcel with APN 162-28-202-013 at 95 East Ali Baba Lane. This is the lot between E Ali Baba Lane, Giles St and E Mandalay Bay Rd. Sale price was $12 million. [emphasis added] It’s across the street from The Oasis Apartments complex which was sold to ED-Den Investment Co. LLC. for $15.6 million.”
