New paint for The Cal?

New look for California Hotel & Casino? We recently caught some painters putting up a test section for a potential new paint scheme for the property. Very fun, we like it!

CIRCA – The new downtown Las Vegas mega-resort coming December, 2020!

On the site of the former Las Vegas Club at the corner of Fremont Street and Main St will soon sit the tallest building in Las Vegas north of The Stratosphere, Circa. Boasting a 44 story tall hotel with 777 rooms (the luckiest hotel in Vegas?), multiple roof-deck pools and the largest Sports Book in Las Vegas, owner Derek Stevens (Golden Gate, The D) is poised to become a primary stakeholder in the future of downtown Las Vegas.

Complete details including many artist renderings of the finished product can be viewed at The D website or clicking the following link. https://www.thed.com/downtown-las-vegas/circa-resort-casino-las-vegas/
