What happened in Vegas In August, 2013, filmmaker Ramsey Denison was beaten up and arrested after calling 911 to report LVMPD officers for abusing a stranger. Denison spent the next 4 years making a documentary about the LVMPD. His investigation would lead him right up to the deadliest mass shooting in US History. See Denison’s award-winning, critically acclaimed documentary on VOD or DVD now! http://www.whathappenedinvegasthemovie.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXg3Uijcvlg https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxGYsoeiy8hj_4GD0_HSeKQ/videos https://www.facebook.com/WHVegasdoc/ https://vimeo.com/ondemand/whathappenedinvegas http://lasvegastribune.net/documentary-exposes-culture-metro-police/ https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/mother-of-man-who-died-in-police-custody-speaks-at-film-screening https://www.filminquiry.com/interview-ramsey-denison-what-happened-in-vegas

//Norway// Vegas Viking Lodge was organized May 16th1992. Our members are both surprised and pleased to find that there is a Sons of Norway lodge in the desert. Vegas Viking lodge is involved in a wide variety of special events throughout the year featuring both traditional and contemporary programs with unique Norwegian-American flavor.
 * || Sons of Norway is a fraternal benefit and cultural society dedicated to preserving Norwegian heritage in North America and strengthening the ties between North America and modern Norway.

Annual events include celebration of the lodge anniversary and 17th of May (Norwegian Constitution Day), //lapskaus// dinner with silent auction, picnic, Christmas bazaar, Christmas party and participating in the International Food Festival with our very own Hagar and Helga. The lodge in the past cleaned highways during the time the State of Nevada Adopt-A-Highway program was in effect.

 * Parklet Vegas**

The Nature Conservancy collaborated with Downtown Project, Iowa State University (ISU) and University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) designers to build a 160-square-foot parklet in Las Vegas! The parklet transformed a parking lot space at 120 South 6th Street, near Carson Avenue,into a slice of nature. People living and working in Las Vegas, as well as visitors, can enjoy the outdoors, have a picnic, play a game, and check out cool engravings about nearby natural areas and wildlife.

CityCenter
[|City Center] is the largest privately funded construction project in the history of the United States. The project was started by [|MGM Mirage] and [|Dubai World]. The complex opened on December 16, 2009 and at a pricetag of $8.5 billion, occupies 67 acres of the Las Vegas Strip between Frank Sinatra Drive and Las Vegas Boulevard.

CityCenter says that it provides a blueprint for the future combining a healthy quality of life with a commitment to [|sustainable design and construction]. CityCenter achieved LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification from the [|U.S. Green Building Council], for its innovative approach to site development, preserving indoor environmental quality, water savings, energy efficiency and materials selection.

More than $40 million was spent on outdoor art, including original sculptures and a [|colorful bouquet of canoes].

"The question regarding whether CityCenter will profitably grow the Las Vegas market, or result in significant profit cannibalization of existing properties, is about to be answered," Michael Paladino wrote in the report for Fitch Ratings Service [|cited in the Las Vegas Review Journal] (December 2009).

The opening of [|City Center] added 4,500 hotel rooms to the local market. The complex is betting on high-end attractions, including the Crystals shopping center.

Apex Industrial Plant
Situated along the Interstate 15 corridor, just 25 minutes from McCarran International Airport, and within 5 hours from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, Apex has the potential to become one of the predominant industrial developments in the western United States. Located just minutes north of the downtown Las Vegas, Apex offers access to municipal ground water, high pressure gas, and an abundance of power supplied by the five power generation stations located within the park. Apex is a power transmission mecca. Not only do five generation stations reside in Apex, but a 69kV, four 230 kV, and a 500 kV transmission line run along federal Utility and Transportation Corridors which are contained within the Park boundaries. Perfect for any renewable energy developer looking to expand operations to Nevada. http://www.apexindustrialpark.com <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #3a84df; display: block; font-family: Roboto,Arial; font-size: 12px;"> View larger map

Quotes
Nevada gaming revenues cratered 22.3 percent, while revenue on the Strip crumbled 25.8 percent. According to the Nevada Gaming Commission, statewide gaming revenues were $905.0 million, while on the Strip the gambling take was $475.0 million. For the year, gaming revenues in Nevada are down 18.2 percent. These resorts typically make about 40 percent of their income from the casino, a percentage that has steadily declined during the last decade as the properties added tons of other amenities such as world class dining and entertainment. But those numbers don’t truly reflect what’s happening on the Strip. From the way things are being reported in the press, it’s easy - but erroneous - to believe the city is no longer attracting hordes of people. Numbers may be down somewhat (about 10 percent through McCarran Airport), but the real problem is not that people aren’t showing up. It’s that when they get there, nervous consumers are keeping their wallets shut. - [|Vaunted Vegas Coming Down to Earth] (December 2008)

The last decade was social. The next decade is gaming. - Seth Priebatsch, [|The game layer on top of the world]

You’ve got one of the most well-known cities in the world. There's a huge gap between what the world knows is Las Vegas and what we’re living in (downtown). We’re coming from a raw place, which is exciting. The amount of incredibly intelligent and experienced people has created a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity. - Rehan Choudhry, [|This Guy Is Betting His Career On Creating A Massive Festival For Las Vegas] [|@rehanc]

Travel Tips
Best view of the skyline? [|James Reza has three suggestions]: the very top of East Bonanza or East Charleston, Spring Mountain at Durango and the High Roller at night.

[|First Friday] - History: Since it began in October of 2002, First Friday has only continued to grow. It is now considered the premier arts event in Las Vegas. From the shops and galleries on Charleston (the [|Arts Factory], S2, Main Gallery and more) to the new galleries on Main Street (Atomic Todd and others) to the [|Commerce Street Studios], down to the whimsical offerings of The Funk House antique store, and the art galleries and vintage shops in the cottages on Colorado. While many people love to walk the neighborhood particularly now with our new beautiful streetscape on Casino Center, we provide arts tour trolleys that make rounds throughout the area.

For art aficionados, First Friday is celebrated in the Arts District of Downtown Las Vegas. The hub is on Casino Center Blvd in between Colorado St and California St. We have extended First Friday to include Fremont East district with live mural paintings and music on 6th St and Fremont

[|(First Friday Map)] and make pick ups every 15-20 minutes throughout the evening. And no matter how you decide to get around, you can always expect a diverse crowd, cool local art, live music, street performances and plenty of surprises! More than 80 galleries, restaurants and retail businesses work together to make the First Friday experience unique to the Las Vegas downtown arts district. Volunteers currently jury the art, work the information tables, set up and tear down parts of the event, place the trolley signs, coordinate the trolley guides, and sell soda and water to benefit First Friday. http://www.firstfridaylasvegas.com/faq.htm [] []

SkyVue
[|SkyVue], located directly across from Mandalay Bay on the Las Vegas Strip, will forever change the landscape of America's playground. Set to become the largest observation wheel in the Western Hemisphere, the 500-foot iconic attraction will feature the world's largest HD LED multimedia displays - each measuring larger than a football field - and 32 glass-walled gondolas. Offering unparalleled views of the city, the gondolas will be available for private and corporate events. Led by Howard Bulloch and David Gaffin of Compass Investments, the project will also include 21,000 square feet of convention space and 140,000 square feet of retail space, dining and entertainment options. SkyVue is slated to open Q4 2013. [|SkyVue Las Vegas Observation Wheel Completes First Phase Of Construction] Las Vegas’ $100 million ‘Super Wheel’ will dwarf London Eye

 * Viva Bike Vegas**

[|Is Las Vegas a Bike-Friendly Town?] - What would it take for Las Vegas to become a bike-friendly city? Is it just a matter of adding a bike lane... or changing our city's mentality? And how would drivers feel about more bikers and bike lanes? Cyclists and the RTC director weigh in. Do you think Las Vegas can be a bike friendly town? Should it?

A personal note. I have the pleasure of living in Las Vegas (Henderson) in 2018 and my objective is to offer a personal account, tips and insights that help get locals and visitors on the same page. In 2018 Las Vegas recovers from the [|1 October Shootings]. There's more to be done to keep [|#VegasStrong]. One of the many things that surprises me about Las Vegas is the embrace of diversity. I'm not saying things are perfect, but there's an awareness here that at the very least acknowledges other people, other cultures.
