Ownership at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas has apparently lost its appetite for charmingly off-kilter variety show Vegas Nocturne. The show is 
not only rumored to be closing at the Cosmo but SLS Las Vegas has been mooted as its new home. However, rumors are in no short supply nominating other new venues. It would be nice if Vegas Nocturne got a second shot somewhere else. The alternative is likely to be more DJs, a species in no short supply on the Las Vegas Strip these days.
Last night, while down at Caesars Palace, I had another gander at The Quad and was nonplussed by how much it’s still Imperial Palace, but with different letters on it. Heck, all the pagoda roofs are still in place. 
Presumably something will be done about this when it becomes Linq Hotel (although the October deadline for reopening doesn’t give Caesars a lot of time to revise the property — one fears further half-measures). Incidentally, I was amused to read that discarded names for the project included Rendezvous and H.Q. — they sure do love them some Qs at Caesars Entertainment.
residents would not only get hiring preference, Eastie will receive $18 million a year for neighborhood improvements. Another $45 million will go toward transportation upgrades. The money, while not as lavish as a deal from the Caesars era of the Suffolk Downs project, will be more concentrated upon East Boston. And if Mohegan profits exceed projections, the city may get more money, too.
