Will Alon Las Vegas be Open on time?

An August 2016 completion for the exterior work was proposed, with a 2018 opening date.  Progress seems to be very slow at the moment, and we can’t see the August 2016 date being achieved.  A 2018 opening is still possible, but we wouldn’t want to put money on it. Keep checking back here for the latest updates.

The onlyvegas247 Opinion

We are desperate for this project to spring into life, and to be part of the renaissance of the North end of the Las Vegas Strip. If both this as Resorts World happen, then this dormant end of the Strip will become a major destination in it’s own right.  It will bring life into SLS, as well as helping Stratosphere and Circus Circus to be once again joined up with the rest of the resorts.  The concept looks interesting if not ground breaking, but is very much in the current vogue of aiming at high end customers whilst down playing gambling elements.  It will act as a nice ying to Resort Worlds yang if they both actually open.
