I drive a taxi here in Vegas. Stardust's sports book was where I watched games on sundays. No one cares about the history of Vegas. It's dead. No one cares about the headliners that made this city famous. It's just a bunch of 20 somethings getting to efed up at the pools and mega clubs and throwing up in my cab. Vegas sucks now. There is no chic here like the 50s 60s or 70s. The Cosmopliton? Give me a break. It's as popular now as Come On Eileen in the 80s. Here today, imploded tomorrow.

It was owned by banditos and mobsters

They implode the hotel because they can't compete another like Wynn, Circus Circus, Bellagio. Why they don't improve the hotel if they yes would become sucessful!!!

So stupid. Demolish Las Vegas historical buildings for what? Parking lots and empty construction sites?
