Most locals steer clear of the Strip — but what's Vegas without a little gambling? Red Rock is one of the newer "local" casinos, geared more toward residents than tourists.

resort spa and casino owned by
Station Casinos on 70 acres located
in the Summerlin village of
Summerlin Centre in Summerlin,
Nevada. Red Rock is located far off

hotel tower with 815 rooms, spa,
94,000 sq ft (8,700 m2) of meeting
space, slot machines, table games, a
16 screen Regal Cinemas movie
theater, a bingo hall, a 3 acres
pool area, a bowling alley as well
as eleven restaurants.
The Red Rock Casino, Resort and
Spa has a notable collection of art.
At one time, its collection included
work by Andy Warhol. Today, its
collection includes the "Love"
sculpture by Robert Indiana in the
pool area and other works of art by
Takashi Murakami, Vik Muniz, and
Paul McCarthy through out the
property.
The westward-facing side of the
hotel tower has another feature - a
light show on the windows. There has
been no official mention of it
whatsoever on the hotel's website or
by the press. Little is known what
the show is officially called, who
designed it, or how long it will be
displayed each night at this point,
but photos taken of the testing
phase show difference from the
eastern side of the tower.

Options for high-rollers abound, as one can forgo the already above-average table minimums for the exclusive high limit room with table games or the "Top Hat" high bidder slot area. A gorgeous layout and several fancy chandeliers combine to make the Monte Carlo one of the more classy acts in town.

Architecturally and visually, this amazing casino lives up to its phenomenal resort exterior. Some 2400 slot and video poker machines, 41 blackjack tables, 8 craps tables, 7 roulette wheels, and other games are interspersed throughout various buildings, restaurants, and hotel spaces. The wondrous detail and urban style of the casino match the half-sized Statue of Liberty and scaled-down versions of the Empire State Building and other skyscrapers that house guests. Service and hospitality are on par with the attention to detail.
New York-New York uses the New York
City influence of its name in
several ways. Its architecture is
meant to evoke the New York City
skyline; the hotel includes several
towers configured to resemble New
York City towers such as the Empire
State Building and the Chrysler
Building. In front of the property
is a lake representing New York
Harbor, with a 150-foot-tall (46 m)
replica of the Statue of Liberty,
and replicas of the Soldiers and
Sailors Monument, the Whitney Museum
of American Art, the Main
Immigration Building on Ellis
Island, and the Grand Central
Terminal.
Within the resort, particular
gambling areas, lounges,
restaurants, and meeting rooms are
named after New York City
neighborhoods or landmarks. The main
casino area, for example, is named
after Central Park, while the shops
are modeled after Greenwich Village.
The resort is located on the
northwest corner of the Tropicana -
Las Vegas Boulevard intersection. At
street level, pedestrians are
blocked from crossing by concrete
barriers. Instead, New York-New York
is linked by overhead pedestrian
bridges to its neighboring casinos
to the south (the Excalibur, across
Tropicana Avenue) and to the east
(the MGM Grand, across the Strip).

About
Las Vegas |
 |
|
|
Las Vegas isn’t really all that big – it’s spread out, but population-wise it is a medium sized city (a little less than 2 million in the greater Las Vegas area including North Las Vegas, Henderson, Green Valley, and Summerlin). And if you’re here on vacation chances are you will be spending the majority of your time either on the Strip or Downtown. |

Las Vegas Strip |
|
|

The Las Vegas Strip is an approximately 4.2-mile (6.8 km) stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard South in Clark County, Nevada. Often incorrectly assumed to be part of the City of Las Vegas, The Strip lies within the unincorporated townships of Paradise and Winchester. Most of the Strip has been designated a All-American Road.
Many of the largest hotel, casino and resort properties in the world are located on the Las Vegas Strip. Nineteen of the world's 25 largest hotels by room count are on the Strip, with a total of over 67,000 rooms. One of the 19, the Las Vegas Hilton, is an "off-Strip" property but is located less than 0.5 miles (0.80 km) east of the Strip.
One of the most visible aspects of Las Vegas' cityscape is its use of dramatic architecture. The modernization of hotels, casinos, restaurants, and residential high-rises on the Strip has established the city as one of the most popular destinations for tourists.

The city's tolerance for various forms of adult entertainment earned it the title of Sin City, and this image has made Las Vegas a popular setting for films and television programs. There are numerous outdoor lighting displays on Fremont Street, as well as elsewhere in the city.
