I just got back from Vegas yesterday 1/24. I don't think anything that
I saw will be close to done by the time you get their. There is the MGM going
up by the Tropicana and Excaliber. This will be the new biggest hotel in the
world with the most rooms. It will have a theme park behind it with what
looked like mostly water rides. They have a very small building you can go
into that has a scale model of the finished product as well as various
literature on the hotel. You can also buy a t-shirt. The place looks like it
will be gigantic. The sign say's Hear Us Roar In '94.
Next to the Excaliber is another hotel that I belive will resemble a large
pyramid. I don't reallyknow much about it.
Next to the Mirage is a place being built called Treasure Island which
will have a pirate theme. The Mirage hotel has a scale model of it by the
lobby across from the check-in and large aquarium.
Thats about all the development I saw. I never ventured out of the strip
so as to anything else I dont know.
