Las Vegas’ continuing success is its ability to reinvent itself when the market needs it to. Unlike urban developments in established cities, Vegas doesn’t venerate the old, the past or history in general. Nothing is so sacred that it can’t be imploded to make way for the next thing. While it can be sad to lose that history, it is unarguable that for Vegas, it works. As much as I’ve fallen in love with the cities history, it was it’s current incarnation that drew me to it for the first time. Properties like Luxor, Excalibur, NYNY and Paris are what caught my attention and cultivated the desire to experience Las Vegas. In a very short period of time, I’ve learned about her history and enjoyed her evolution. That brings us to now and Vegas’ current incarnation, retail. It started with shopping malls and have transformed into outdoor dining and shopping experiences. The Linq promenade was a brand new experience to the market and has already been mimicked by Bally’s Grand Bazaar and MGM’s The Park. Vegas properties are finally understanding that the guests of today aren’t trying to get out of the desert heat; they want to spend lots of time in it.
