Paris Las Vegas is a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, USA. Its theme is the city of Paris in France; it includes a half scale, 541-foot-tall (164.6 m) replica of the Eiffel Tower, a sign in the shape of the Montgolfier balloon, a two-thirds size Arc de Triomphe, a replica of La Fontaine des Mers, and a 1,200-seat theatre called Le Théâtre des Arts. The front of the hotel suggests the Paris Opera House and the Louvre. The Paris is linked via a promenade to its sister property, Bally’s Las Vegas, through which it is linked to the Las Vegas Monorail. A unique architectural aspect of Paris Las Vegas is that the back legs of its Eiffel Tower actually come down through the ceiling into the casino floor. In fact, it was planned to be full scale, but the airport was too close and the tower had to be shrunk.

Justin Cole (cousin of Aaron Auxier aka Ritz) guest stars on Sin City 90210 as he shares interesting information about the tragic fire at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in 1980. This video was shot as a school project for Justin’s college fire class in Los Angeles, California.
The fire at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino stands as the worst disaster in Nevada’s history and plays quite an important role on the current Las Vegas Strip high-rise market (including condo, condotel, timeshare, hotel, and casino). This is because the disaster was so devastating, Nevada soon became home to some of the world’s strictest fire codes (which has impacted construction costs ever since).
In another words, locals, as well as tourists, should be grateful for today’s modern properties such as Cosmopolitan, Bellagio, Veer Towers, Caesar’s Palace, Paris, New York New York, Mandarin Oriental, Treasure Island, Luxor, Wynn, Encore, and many more.

This is Encore, where every room is a deluxe suite – with such attention to detail that no other hotel room can compare. Encore & Wynn have the best clubs – XS & Tryst – so if you stay here you’ll have the most beautiful standard room in town and save on cover charges at their great clubs too. I own nothing in this video

With thundering crash, the New Frontier came down on Nov. 13, 2007, closing the door on the second oldest hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.
While the New Frontier never had the romantic Rat Pack era associations that other imploded hotels (Sands, Dunes) had, it did have its share of historic Vegas moments. This was the hotel that Elvis Presley made his Vegas debut at in 1956. (Presley received a cool reception and was panned by Vegas entertainment critics.) The New Frontier was also the starting place for Vegas headliners, Siegfried & Roy. The hotel was, until its implosion, the last operating hotel that was once owned by Howard Hughes and was also the site of one of the longest-running labor strikes in U.S. history (six years and four months).
The New Frontier will be replaced by the multi-billion-dollar resort modeled after New York’s Plaza Hotel.
