I [Heart] Vegas

There are a lot of people who like to gamble, but there are also many who don’t, and giving them a reason to visit Las Vegas has always been wise. It’s funny that some people stamp their feet and demand “diversification,” but others complain when an operator does something beside run a slot barn. Like Bellagio, Mandalay Bay, Venetian, and Wynncore, Vdara is at least a step in the direction of diversifying the tourist sector of the economy. If all we depended on was serious gamblers, or leisure travelers, or convention-goers, we’d be in much worse shape than we are now. There are still plenty of places on the Strip for those who want the traditional hotel/casino; something different can’t hurt and will likely help.
