VINTAGE VEGAS: JOCKEY CLUB WASN’T ALWAYS IN THE SHADOWS Forty-five years ago, Forney Smith and Louis Schreiber purchased 10 acres of prime real estate on Las Vegas Boulevard and built the Jockey Club. It was the third condominium project in Nevada and consisted of 348 units owned primarily by investors who would rent their space to tourists.
By 1977, several of the units became timeshare operations. Pictured here is an aerial view of the property in February 1980. These days, the Jockey Club is nestled between the Bellagio and Cosmopolitan, housing 78 condos and 270 time-share units. — REBECCA CLIFFORD-CRUZ

Q&A with DEE WIRTH
Just one person’s support can change another’s life Having come through her own struggles with addiction, Dee Wirth got clean and turned her life around at the nonprofit WestCare Nevada Women and Children’s Campus. After earning a bachelor’s degree in human services and an MBA, Wirth was hired at WestCare and worked her way into the top position at the organization, which provides crucial behavioral health services. Do you have any recent news to share? WestCare, which was founded in Southern Nevada more than 42 years ago, continues to grow into other regions. As opioid and other types of addictions continue to rise, I’m really proud of the efforts and strides WestCare has taken nationally to help combat these issues and lift the “human spirit.” Since its inception, WestCare has grown to more than 100 locations in 17 U.S. states, Guam, the Pacific Islands and the Virgin Islands. The nonprofit organization has several programs available in each of its communities. Among the services we offer are: women and children’s programs, VA programs, homeless programs, residential facilities, mental health services and transitional services. We also provide Community Triage Centers to help patients obtain specific services. What is the best business advice you’ve received? One of my greatest mentors once told me that if I love what I do then I will never have to work another day for the rest of my life.

As much a bond as a business VEGAS INC STAFF
Jaqueline Andrea moved to Las Vegas knowing no one and dreaming of breaking into a business where reputation is everything — at the start of the Great Recession, no less. Still, the mother of two persevered and learned to love mundane business tasks so she could earn a living by sharing her passion. Describe your business.
It is a business built on the artistic expression of everyday human experience. It’s portraiture and commercial photography amplified through my use of shades and tones, and the diversity of smiles, joy, grief and every other aspect of the human persona. It’s about revolutionizing the way people view photography by bringing forward the faces, the voices, and the desires of the people captured in photos. Who are your customers?
Everyone, whether you are looking for professional headshots as a business leader or are looking to capture a special moment with family or friends, can become a customer. The customers are family. They may not be related by blood, but they are related by a common bond and desire to engrave in their mind a memory stamped in time. What is your business philosophy?
I don’t take pictures, I create art. This philosophy has been with me from the beginning. I wanted to change the conversation of what people thought about photography so there was an understanding that taking photographs was more than just point and shoot. Photography is about capturing a moment that people want to remember for the rest of their lives. No matter what emotion or idea we capture, the work is a piece that my clients can be proud of because it came from the best versions of themselves. The art I create is a reminder that photography is about the relational bond you build with your clients. What’s the most important part of your job?
Making sure I am being authentic to the desires of my clients. It is so easy for us to confuse the fun parts of being a photographer with the most important part of being a photographer. The fun part is always meeting new people and being introduced to new clients. But the most important part is recognizing that every person I meet with, every family, is going to tell me a story that needs to be captured. Photoshop can alter the way we look or feel, which can lose the essence of my client’s story. So for me, it is important that I stay true not only to my client, but to my philosophy of my business and of my heart, to stay true to the art. What is the best part about doing business in Las Vegas?
There are opportunities all over the place. If you have a vision, you can apply it here and make magic happen. How can Nevada improve its business climate?
Nevada capitalizes on its most tourist-oriented destinations — Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe. But there is so much within this state that is undeveloped, partly because

there is no incentive for business to establish in remote access zones. I have seen the beauty within this state, but I have also captured the devastation of human experience here. I would encourage Nevada to redesign the way we can transport across the state. Our cities are isolated and separated by distance, so we don’t feel like a connected state. By establishing an intercity transportation system, other than airplanes and uncomfortable buses, cities that go undiscovered could be more attractive to residents who would like a simple getaway or who would like to explore the state. At this point in your career, what has been your hardest business lesson?
You have to balance your passion with the ordinary tasks of running a business. When I started my business, I just wanted to take pictures. But I have learned that 10 percent is taking pictures and 90 percent is everything else. As an artist, it can be pretty easy to have disdain for your passion when you are caught up in the politics of the business arena. I have had to learn how to just readjust and re-evaluate at times, and remember that at my core, I am a photographer and owning a business helps me expand my love.

On Thomas Moore’s lasvegassun.com story “First e-sports arena coming to the Strip”: From a business standpoint, it makes good sense. Las Vegas has a saturation of nightclubs. That high level of competition seems to have driven some clubs into allowing illegal activities on the premises in order to attract patrons. So by dumping the nightclub for e-sports, you’ve got a less competitive business, and a whole lot less liability for the resort. — DieselJunkie On Ray Brewer’s lasvegassun.com story “Don’t forget 51s in new era of Las Vegas sports with Golden Knights and Raiders”: Build a beautiful Major League Stadium for the 51s and wait for an MLB team. I bet the 51s draw more fans than both the Raiders and the Golden Knights. — #1baseballfan On Mick Akers’ lasvegassun.com story “A Raiders specialty license plate might become available in Nevada”: Raiders and Golden Knights bumper stickers and T-shirts are great, but taxpayers should not officially promote billionaire corporations and multimillionaire athletes with official state license plates. — Vladnhorse In 15 years, when the Raiders leave Las Vegas for greener pastures and Nevadans are still on the hook for $750 million, I’m gonna say “I told you so!” — PicklingTheBeast

Typical Las Vegas tourist getting younger By mick akers Staff Writer
A spike in millennial visitors to Las Vegas has the generation almost eclipsing Generation X tourists in town. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority recently released its annual Las Vegas Visitors Profile, made up of survey results from 3,600 participants, confirming millennials are poised to make up the largest chunk of Las Vegas tourist numbers. About 34 percent of the almost 43 million visitors to Las Vegas were millennials last year, up from 24 percent in 2015. Generation X visitors dropped from 36 percent to 35 percent, and Baby Boomers fell from 35 percent to 28 percent during the same timeframe. Tied to that, the average age of the Las Vegas visitor in 2016 was 44, the youngest in 20 years. Additionally, the percentage of first-time visitors rose sharply to 27 percent, up from 16 percent the previous year. “We had pretty significant growth in younger visitors, as the millennial visitor did increase that first-time visitation,” said Kevin Bagger, executive director of the LVCVA’s Research Center. “If you’re a younger visitor, you’re less likely to have been here before, because you have less time to have done that.” To make Las Vegas more attractive to millennials, the authority is focusing on tech-related initiatives. “Millennials are synonymous with selfies and capturing experiences via images to share out,” Bagger said. “GIFs (and) unique photo booths that create GIFs from captured images and allow users to share out their pictures quickly via social media are used at events for marketing purposes. It engages users and furthers brand recognition and audience reach. Furthermore, we use various social media platforms to reach millennials.” In addition, the authority introduced its trade show booth labeled Vegas Interactive, which features an interactive video wall that allows users to access detailed information about hotels, convention spaces and other areas via touch screen. “Las Vegas is a unique destination, offering more hotel rooms than any other city in the country and three of the top 10 largest convention centers, and the breadth of experiences and facilities can be overwhelming for potential visitors,” Bagger said. “By giving guests the opportunity to explore this interactive wall mural, our new trade show booth creates a unique and memorable brand connection to Vegas.” A jump in international visitors also played into the first-time visitor increase, as overseas travelers are less likely to have visited as well, Bagger said. The survey showed that 69 percent of people gambled while on their trip to Las Vegas, down 18 percent from 1996 when 87 percent of tourists said they gambled. Those gamblers were playing an average of 1.9 hours a day in 2016, down from 4.1 hours in 1996. Despite that, the average amount of gambling

money a visitor budgeted increased in 2016, with those who gambled setting aside $619. That’s more than the average player in 1996, who budgeted $581. Additionally, spending was up across the board for several demographics. The average tourist spent $675 per trip, not including gaming. That is up from $565 the average tourist spent in 2015. n Food and drink: $318 ($292 in 2015) n Shopping: $157 ($123) n Local transportation: $96 ($73) n Shows: $68 ($62) n Sightseeing: $36 ($15) Last year, 52 percent of visitors attended a show or attractions, with 49 percent spending money to see those events. The volume is down slightly from 2015, as 61 percent of tourists said they saw an attraction, with 45 percent of them paying to see that show. That sector features more than just the typical casino show, as Las Vegas offers a wide variety of entertainment options. “The notion of entertainment continues to expand — it is broader than shows,” Bagger said. “It could be concerts, attractions, a celebrity DJ, nightclubs, dayclubs, festivals and sports.” Bagger said that will continue to be the case, especially with major league sports teams coming to town. The NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights begin play at T-Mobile Arena this fall, and the NFL’s Raiders are aiming to begin playing in Las Vegas in 2020. “The destination is now home to the NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights and is on the verge of welcoming a second major league franchise,” said Rossi Ralenkotter, president and CEO of the LVCVA. “Las Vegas is the top destination for high-profile sporting events, and NFL football is the next step in our evo-
lution … As the entertainment capital of the world, it’s a phenomenal opportunity to expand our offerings to include Raider Nation.” The number of tourists who visit outdoor areas around Southern Nevada also has risen, which Bagger attributes to millennials and their more adventurous nature. Twenty-one percent of visitors said they visited a nearby area, up from 16 percent in 2014. Of those tourists who traveled outside of Las Vegas during their trip, the Grand Canyon was the top destination, at 65 percent. Hoover Dam was the second-most popular, at 57 percent, and Zion National Park was third, at 12 percent. The amount of time visitors stay in Las Vegas saw a slight drop over the past 20 years, as the average tourist stayed 3.4 nights in 2016, down from 3.7 nights in 1996. “Part of that was in response to the Great Recession, when people were choosing to save money,” Bagger said. “It went down to 3.2 nights briefly, but we’ve recovered to 3.4 nights for the average stay.” Of the tourists visiting Las Vegas, about 33 percent are coming from California — 27 percent from nearby Southern California. The vast majority of visitors were satisfied with their trip to Las Vegas — 89 percent said they were very satisfied and 10 percent said they were somewhat satisfied, according to the LVCVA survey. Just 1 percent said they were somewhat dissatisfied with their trip. Those who said they were unhappy with their trip usually gave reasons outside of LVCVA’s control. “The responses we usually get are: ‘I didn’t win enough money,’ ‘It’s hot,’ “A friend of mine got sick’ or ‘I didn’t have enough time,’ ” Bagger said.

Roulette makes a comeback By Thomas Moore Staff Writer
Roulette, the iconic casino game featured in numerous Hollywood movies, is making a bit of a comeback in Nevada casinos, showing marked increases this year and through most of 2016, according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board. The win from roulette was up 58.87 percent in Nevada in February compared to the same month last year, the most recent gaming revenue report said. The only other game that saw a similar year-overyear increase for February was bingo. Roulette was also up 7.97 percent for three months ending Feb. 28, compared to the same period a year ago, and up 13.27 percent for 12 months ending Feb. 28, compared to the previous 12-month period. “Roulette had a great February due to improved hold and increased volumes,” said Michael Lawton, a senior research analyst with the board. “2016 was a good year as well with increases in win and volume, which followed up three consecutive calendar year decreases to win.” Lawton said a bump in roulette play a few years ago made the following years’ numbers look poor in comparison but now the game is seeing a resurgence. “The state set a record in roulette volume in 2012 with $2.1 billion in wagers, which was due to some very strong Latin America play that hasn’t returned to those levels in four years,” Lawton said. Rob Cinelli, Las Vegas Sands Corp.’s senior vice president of casino operations, said roulette is doing better at the casinos he manages because visitation numbers are up overall in Las Vegas and because the game is becoming more popular.
“Yes, we’re definitely seeing an uptick,” Cinelli said. “Roulette is a volume game and as visitation increases to Las Vegas, then roulette naturally increases.” To accommodate the increased volume and interest in the game, five to seven roulette wheels have been added in the last year and a half at the Venetian and Palazzo casinos, Cinelli said. Anthony Curtis, owner of lasvegasadvisor.com, said he’s also seen an increase in roulette play. “I see more people playing it,” Curtis said. “I see far fewer dead roulette tables than I used to. It’s one of the games that for some reason is resonating better with the younger crowd — the millennials that all the casinos are trying to get.” Cinelli agreed. “Although roulette is not a skill-based game, players have a feeling that they are responsible for the outcome by placing the bet, unlike a slot where there’s no involvement other than pushing a button,” he said. “We are seeing that our roulette players’ age is skewing a bit younger. So we are seeing an increase in volume and also a decrease in the age of the demographic playing it.” In his casino travels, Curtis said he is noticing that roulette is popular for younger gamblers before and after they hit nightclubs on the Strip. “When I’m walking through the casino, there’s always a younger customer and a younger crowd on the roulette wheel,” Curtis said. “It’s a hit with the club crowd. Roulette seems to be a cool thing to do before you go into the club and when they come out they play. I see them all the time, having a few drinks and powering up on the roulette table.”
NV Energy has reached its mandated renewable energy goals for the seventh consecutive year. In a filing with the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada, NV Energy reported it achieved a 22.2 percent renewable credit level last year in Southern Nevada and a 26.6 level in Northern Nevada. The legislated requirement for 2016 was 20 percent, based on total retail energy sales. The requirement rises to 25 percent in 2025. NV Energy said there are 43 renewable energy projects in Nevada from which its customers benefit. That number will grow, with four more universal solar projects in the development or construction phases. The majority of NV Energy’s renewable energy portfolio credits come from geothermal resources, but solar resources are on the rise, representing almost 33 percent of total renewable energy resources. Together, those projects represent more than 1,460 megawatts of nameplate renewable energy capacity. If all were operating at the same time, they would generate enough energy to serve more than 875,000 typical homes in Nevada, according to NV Energy. Further cementing the push toward utilizing cleaner energy, coal dropped to 6 percent of NV Energy’s power generation after the recent closing of the coal-fueled Reid Gardner Generating Station. The majority of energy comes from Nevada-based natural gas power plants. The company has slashed its coalfueled generation and increased its renewable energy portfolio without raising rates. Customer rates today are at levels near rates in 2007. Nevada’s average retail power price for customers was 18 percent less than the average in the U.S., according to a 2016 report by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. The average price was 45 percent lower than in California. NV Energy customers are served by 19 geothermal energy plants, 14 universal-scale solar fields, six hydro projects, five biomass or methane projects and a wind farm.

Up next for NFL stadium project: Finalize Raiders lease, UNLV’s role as co-tenant By adam candee
ment could be completed around the same time as the lease in May. This protects the university’s interests and also could be necessary because the lease will overlap with this document on field markings, suite use, signage and sponsorship.
Staff Writer
Las Vegas officially reserved its place in the National Football League last month. Cementing that move will require stacks of paperwork generated through months of continuing negotiation among the team, the Las Vegas Stadium Authority and UNLV. The stadium authority board met last week for the first time since NFL owners approved the Raiders’ move. It spent most of its March 9 meeting discussing potential issues with the lease agreement that eventually will govern the Raiders’ tenancy in the new $1.9 billion stadium that drew the team from California. The lease, though, is just one of a handful of important documents that must be agreed upon before ground is broken on the stadium site. To stay on track for a 2020 opening, construction work on the stadium must begin by December. What do the franchise and local officials need to finalize to make the stadium a reality? These are the documents we know are needed as of today. Lease The document that receives the most attention is this one, largely because the draft submitted in January by the Raiders fell short of expectations with some authority board and university officials. The lease presented last week looked nothing like the January proposal. The lease will encompass a wide variety of terms including (but far from limited to) future capital improvements, rent payments, use of suites and club seating, stadium naming rights, advertising and parking. Per Senate Bill 1, which authorized $750 million in public funding toward the facility, the lease must cover 30 years. Stadium Authority Chairman Steve Hill said the lease could largely be finished by the board’s May 11 meeting. “The lease is the one we’ve concentrated on and been working on for a longer period of time,” Hill said. Development The stadium must be built before it is occupied, of course, meaning the terms for its construction need to be

Specialty license plate might become available Fans might be able to represent Nevada’s second major league team while they drive their vehicles. The Senate Transportation Committee recently passed a heavily amended Senate Bill 428, which commemorates the Las Vegas Raiders rather than the Tule Springs Fossil Bed. A fee of $35 will be charged on top of other registration costs, then $10 each year to renew. Fees generated by the special license plate would be distributed to the Ice Age Park Foundation or its successor in support of the proposed Tule Springs State Park. Tule Springs State Park in the North Las Vegas area has yet to be
constructed. It is part of Gov. Brian Sandoval’s two-year budget, which still must be approved by the Legislature. The bill allows the Department of Motor Vehicles to receive gifts, grants and donations or other sources of money for the production and issuance of the Raiders license plates. The proposed Vegas Golden Knights license plate bill, Senate Bill 283, had similar language. The Raiders did not return a request for comment on if they would be willing to pay for the manufacturing of the proposed Raiders plate.
spelled out separately. This element likely will take the longest to complete because it moves in concert with the high-impact project study in process for the team’s preferred site west of the Strip at Russell Road, Hill said. The Raiders will develop the stadium in concept, but most likely will contract with an established company such as Majestic Realty, the original stadium developer that stepped away from the project in October. At the time, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson still held a $650 million stake in the development of the stadium, but SB1 had not been approved by the Legislature.
understand why, go back to the SB1 process in October. Eager to find a solution that allows the UNLV football team to escape dated and distant Sam Boyd Stadium, legislators stipulated the Raiders would need to share the facility with the Rebels as a condition for receiving taxpayer funding. Gerry Bomotti, UNLV senior vice president for finance and business, said recently that university representatives did not feel the initial proposal put forward by the Raiders sufficiently worked in the Rebels’ interests. Bomotti said UNLV’s primary concern remains creating a true home-field advantage. The board likely will not approve a lease until the shared-use agreement takes shape, but Hill said that docu-

Non-relocation At the same time the Raiders sign the papers to come to Las Vegas, they also must commit not to leave town. This document likely will look similar to that of other cities, including a 33-page agreement in Houston. That contract spells out the Texans’ requirement to play all but one home game per season within the local area. It also details what happens if some unforeseen problem at their stadium forces them out of the building. In short, the Texans would first have to look for another suitable place to play within the Houston area before playing games elsewhere. The agreement also covers what happens if either side defaults on its obligations. The Raiders’ version of this agreement likely will include similar language to that of Houston and other cities, Hill said. Its timeline will trail the lease and shared-use agreement. Personal Seat Licenses The Raiders began accepting $100 deposits toward PSLs almost immediately after the approval of their relocation application. PSL sales are expected to generate at least $200 million toward the Raiders’ contribution to the stadium, which is largely built on $850 million in loans from Bank of America and the NFL. Hill said this agreement should be straightforward as well, with the authority selling PSLs on the Raiders’ behalf but also holding no responsibility to cover a shortfall if the sales were to fall short of expectations. The PSL document should mirror the non-relocation agreement in the timeline. Community benefits An informal agreement between Adelson and state Sen. Aaron Ford regarding ancillary community benefits first came to light last year. With Adelson no longer part of the project, that agreement likely will need to be revisited. It definitely will need more specifics before it can be finalized.

Retailers must offer experiences not found online plans to offer buyouts to 6,000 workers in anticipation of some closures. Almost 60,000 retail jobs have been eliminated in the U.S. since January, and financial services giant Credit Suisse estimates there could be more than 8,600 store closings this year. With the marketplace buzzing, local business professionals weighed in on what smaller brands should take away to strengthen their operations and offerings. Stores should craft a specific Experience “I feel that if Costco does not sell it, I don’t need it,” said Scott Seegmiller, a CPA and the CFO of WestCorp Management Group in Las Vegas. “I think that shopping is a pain and things are overpriced.” Amazon Prime on the other hand, Seegmiller contends, “is ingenious. Get it to me quick, easy, one-click ordering, see history, suggest, online reviews. Free books, movies and songs. There is a shift coming. Malls should be turned into escape mazes or call centers.” However, Seegmiller sees the potential for reinvention, and engaging the customer is key. “Stay relevant, with coupons and incentives to come to the store. Kohl’s does a good job with this. Touch and feel, try it on, get it now.” Marketing can help maintain that constant contact with customers, he added. “Combine consistent marketing with specials and incentives. Easy returns, friendly service, people who can find things and answer a question.” Patrick Casale, managing partner for the Multicare Group in Las Vegas, agrees that operators of bricks-andmortar stores need to play up the perks of the in-person experience. “Customer service is the greatest asset they have,” he insisted. “Price does matter; personalized service matters more. Most people hate dealing with computerized telephone systems that have prompts to get you to the correct area to get questions answered. This makes everyone go nuts when they get the runaround.” Physical stores also enjoy a logistical advantage, Casale points out. If online orders are incorrect, shoppers are forced to resend the package, “and this creates more down time. Consumers like the feeling of immediate
shutterstock
satisfaction.” It might not be enough just to develop personal relationships with clientele. “Retailers must offer experiences that cannot be found online,” asserted Judy Brower Fancher, CEO of Brower, Miller & Cole, a marketing firm in Newport Beach, Calif. “For apparel retailers, this can include instore fashion shows, knowledgeable personal shopper-style salespeople, and the ability to ship sizes not available at the store directly to the customer with no shipping fee.” For owners of shopping centers, Fancher continued, the focus should be on finding tenants that offer services and experiences that range from needs-based — such as hair and nail salons and urgent-care centers — to recreational, such as restaurants. Specifically, she means restaurants that “create a great environment that surpasses having food delivered,” as that industry is under threat from the convenience of apps that allow you to order and pay for food and arrange delivery. Others include retailers who provide entertainment experiences, from fitness classes to upscale bowling alleys, and interactive experiences such as children’s play areas. Fancher nodded to successful retailer Anthropologie, which she said was thriving “by listening to customers and offering what they want. In addition to women’s apparel, they now also offer home goods and gifts.”
By expanding its offerings under a popular brand, Anthropologie is “appealing to a broader base and gaining dollars that have gone to other stores in the past.” Jeff Neville, vice president at BRP Consulting in Boston, Mass., said expanding inventory could combat the loss of customers with a “constant ability to shop and easily research the lowest price. “Retailers — especially those with bricks-and-mortar locations — need to further differentiate themselves to entice customers into the store,” he said. “Providing a more personalized experience and offering valueadd services can help even small retailers differentiate and compete successfully against companies like Amazon. The best and most powerful way to succeed is through personalization.” Think Like a Customer, not a web competitor It’s wise to keep track of what online sellers are good at, but it’s even more important to pinpoint their weaknesses. “Quit trying to best them at their own game, i.e., head-to-head competition on time and price,” suggested Ryan Mathews, founder of Black Monk Consulting in Eastpointe, Mich. “Start thinking like a customer and begin to imagine what the digital experience isn’t good at.”
For now, bricks-and-mortar retailers enjoy the advantage of being able to create experiences around products, Mathews noted. “That may all change with virtual and augmented reality, of course. But now there’s no way to participate in a cooking class, a wellness experience or other kinds of experiential retail environments other than in a physical store.” Neville said he believed that talk among some of the media of a “retail apocalypse” was premature at best. “For all the growth online shopping has enjoyed over the past five or so years, more than nine out of 10 purchases still take place in a physical store. The reason is that stores still exert a powerful draw on many shoppers. Millennials love the theater of shopping and the ability to touch, smell and feel. You don’t get the sensory part of shopping from online. Now that millennials outnumber baby boomers, retailers need to adjust their store models to appeal to the expectations of millennials.” Shopping is innately an experience, Neville notes, so advantages can be gained by refining how it looks and feels. “It is theater, and the customers, associates and the supporting technology must perform as actors. Each has their role, but the stage has to be set properly. It needs to be simple, clean space, easy to navigate and technologically enabled. The content has to be curated much like a play to complement the players and the set.” Rather than worrying, retailers should be adjusting. “The problems (online) retailers have created are overpricing and lack of customer service,” Casale said. “Brick-and-mortar needs to work in reverse. Make prices competitive and stop trying to make a score with each sale. Provide quality, consistent service and get to know your customers.” Mathews concluded: “Digital retailing is going to force brick-andmortar retailers to change and up their game. And I think it’s fair to say that retailers are going to have to learn how to give control of the shopping experience back to the customer. That said, physical stores aren’t all going away soon — just the ones that insist on taking their customers for granted.”

A
round the world, the economic health and beauty of cities are driven by their downtowns. Visitors to any metropolis usually seek its urban core and take their impressions and experiences of it home. Their stories, photographs and social media posts from downtowns create more buzz and visitation. Therefore, it is critical that Las Vegas’ downtown development continues its rapid pace. If you walk or bike around through the newly implemented RTC bike-share program, you will see that there is new construction and redevelopGuest column: ment on many blocks. Paul Murad If there is one particular area that is most vital and representative of any downtown, it has to be Main Street. Every city and town in America has one for a reason. That was always the central place where government and business would have their presence and the community would have its churches and temples, markets, restaurants and stores. This was
The area is changing quickly, and those who decide to open for business there in the near future can still be viewed as geniuses who had the foresight to be in the right place at the right time when others try to get their spot a year or two from now. the central artery of life and commerce. In fact, most ancient cities had that central street and it was called “Cardo.” If you are sightseeing in Jerusalem, Athens or Rome today, you will see that street. Las Vegas’ Main Street is a hot spot for anyone looking to open an office, retail store or food-and-beverage venue. It is a combination of LA’s Melrose Place and Arts District, San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter and Williamsburg in Brooklyn when they were in the very early stages of redevelopment. If you’ve visited those areas, you know what I mean. The city of Las Vegas has been a great supporter and enabler of downtown redevelopment with its assistance, redevelopment grants and license fee reductions, as well as the good work of the city’s Economic Development Department and project development facilitators, who work with property owners, prospective investors and tenants. One of the greatest things that the city is doing on
Main Street is, ironically, what it’s not doing. So far, it hasn’t installed the parking meters that are so abundant in other parts of downtown, including Fremont East. These meters serve as the greatest deterrents to locals coming to DTLV. As someone who’s had an office in the area since 2005, when choosing where to meet local business associates during the day or friends after hours, I always suggest the Arts District over anywhere else. I hope that the city continues that meter-free environment, which is attracting tenants and their customers and which makes this street the best location for a new business downtown. Property and business owners in the Arts District, along with their growing clientele, appear united in that opinion. The area is changing quickly, and those who decide to open for business there in the near future can still be viewed as geniuses who had the foresight to be in the right place at the right time when others try to get their spot a year or two from now. Those who have a solid brand or business elsewhere in the Las Vegas Valley, now is the best time to claim your place in the Arts District and be a part of the Main Street community. I look forward to seeing you on Main Street! Paul Murad is president of Metroplex Realty, a boutique brokerage firm based in downtown Las Vegas since 2005. Metroplex curates the leasing of several buildings along Main Street and in the surrounding area.
