In reply to Andy.

Leaving a building sit for years, all that metal and steel exposed to the desert salt and rain. Wouldn’t that rust the support frame? I would think so.

Either that or I watch too many episodes of Collapsing Buildings ™ in Life after People. NOTE: The collapse of Las Vegas is spectacular.

In reply to D. Reinecke. Homage paid. I updated the article. One of my favorite casinos of all time, btw.

@Russ, last render only showed the main tower and a big orb like structure out front. The other buikdings that Boyd had planned seem to not be a part of Gentings plan.

Echelon was meant to rival City Center in terms of size and number of buildings. Obviously that’s not going to happen now and I expect most of the site will be open

That's just the way it is. — Wed, 21 Nov 2018 19:28:00 +0000

In reply to Housefunker. Besides, there's no money to be had in homage. What matters in Las Vegas, what has always mattered in Las Vegas, is what can be done, what can be seen now. The past is for the Neon Boneyard. The money is now.

Great construction update. I love Vegas construction updates. Can I request more construction updates more often from the strip corridor and casinos around the city?

@Russ, not sure what they are doing with that north wing, but, as you said, I don’t see any progress on it. Boyd had it listed as the Shangri-La Tower in its Echelon renderings. There have been so many renderings of RW from Genting that I’m not sure what the final product is actually going to look like, and its still hard to tell given that the resumed work has focused on the main hotel tower.
