For at least a year, Las Vegas locals have been watching and wondering about the possible construction of a baseball stadium on the Strip. The price tag? $1.5 billion. But Nevada taxpayers will help the billionaire team owner with $380 million.
So there’s been understandable grumbling.
It’s also been nearly a year since a developer claimed he was going to build a $10 billion complex on the south end of the Las Vegas Strip without public money. When that will actually happen, no one’s quite sure.
At the same time, plans and ideas for redevelopment off the Strip are taking shape. That includes an “electric village” downtown, and plans for a public-private mental health campus on Charleston Boulevard.
