VINTAGE VEGAS: ARMY-NAVY GAME CELEBRATED IN LAS VEGAS The traditional football game between the Naval Academy’s Midshipmen and Army’s Cadets of West Point was celebrated across the nation this month. Since 1890, the two teams have met 117 times on the gridiron. Pictured here, the Chaparral High School marching band plays Nov. 24, 1976, at the Army-Navy retreat in Las Vegas. The annual

retreat was a local event, with students in the JROTC program and veterans attending. The game was played in Philadelphia. On Dec. 10 this year, Army beat Navy 21-17, breaking their 14-year losing streak, with the series now standing at 60-50-7 in Navy’s favor. — REBECCA CLIFFORD-CRUZ

Q&A with scott gragson

High hopes for Las Vegas’ construction industry Scott Gragson, executive vice president of the Las Vegas land division at Colliers International, has been with the firm for 20 years and recently, his team facilitated the purchase of 189 acres at North Las Vegas’ Apex Industrial Park, adjacent to Hyperloop One, as well as 140 acres south of the M Resort from a Bureau of Land Management auction. Homebuilders are some of the biggest land buyers in Las Vegas. Are they buying more or less land compared with three or four years ago? They are buying much more land than they were four years ago, and probably about the same as they were three years ago because in late 2013, the market started to rebound and builders could pencil building new homes at the lower land values as there was pent-up demand for new product and lenders were lending again. With land prices going up, we are seeing the builders being more cautious, as they have to build a more expensive home, and there are fewer buyers as prices go up. The market Scott Gragson, an executive with Colliers International, serves on the board of for high-end homes seems to be more directors for Hope for Prisoners, Candlelighters and Las Vegas Fire and Rescue active, as buyers in that demographic Foundation.

I can be a little brash at times, as there are many highs and lows in our business. I refined my management approach by not micro-managing my partners. We try to respect each other’s work style and remember that this business should be fun. Where do you see yourself and your company in 10 years? I have high hopes that the next 10 years will be the most successful years in my career as Las Vegas evolves into a world-class city with major league sports to complement our great convention, hospitality and entertainment offerings.

Projects being planned or built now will change landscape of the Strip By thomas moore Staff Writer

With Lucky Dragon now open and operating, people watching Nevada’s most important industry might be wondering what’s next for the postrecession Strip. The Lucky Dragon was the first ground-up resort built on or near the Strip since the Cosmopolitan opened in 2010. Not that there’s been no development on the Strip since then. Several old properties were revamped and a few major additions were made to resorts as the recession waned. SLS Las Vegas was one of those projects, as was the Cromwell, a Caesars Entertainment property that debuted in 2014. Caesars also added the Nobu Hotel to its campus in 2013 and updated the Imperial Palace, turning it into the Linq in 2014. Just south of the Linq, Caesars built an outdoor shopping area, and to the east it added the High Roller observation wheel. MGM Resorts opened Delano, a reboot of The Hotel in 2014, and this year opened T-Mobile Arena and a public area next to it known as the Park. In addition, MGM opened its mid-sized performance venue, the Park Theater, this month. However, Las Vegas always puts a premium on what’s new. So with that in mind, here’s the latest on the more promising projects planned for the Strip. The Big Three There are major projects — the kinds that were the norm on the Strip until the recession hit — planned for Las Vegas Boulevard. They are Resorts World, being developed on the former Echelon site by Genting Americas; Alon, being developed across from the Wynn by a group of developers; and Paradise Park, a Wynn project planned for the golf course behind the Encore and Wynn Las Vegas. Of the three, the mega-sized Asianthemed Resorts World seems to be furthest along. “We have been working very diligently to refine our design,” said Michael Levoff, vice president of corporate communications for Genting Americas. “That is work that’s ongo-

Construction of MGM Resorts’ parking garage behind the Excalibur should be completed next spring. It will serve T-Mobile Arena and the Park Theater. (Christopher Devargas/staff)

ing. Also, we have done a lot of work on the site in term of preparation.” Levoff said construction has been completed on some of the project’s infrastructure, including a parking structure and a human resources facility beneath the parking garage. Work on the resort could start soon, he said. “We’re at a point where a full-site

mobilization is imminent,” Levoff said. “It’s construction of our Phase One project, which is what we’ve previously disclosed, and we’re going forward on that, and we expect that mobilization to occur in quarter one of 2017.” Genting America has said it plans to spend $4 billion on Resorts World, the first phase of which will feature

a hotel, multiple restaurants, over 100,000 square feet of casino space with more than 3,000 slots and table games, a significant amount of retail space, and a nightclub. “We anticipate construction to be complete toward the end of 2019,” Levoff said. The CEO of Wynn Resorts, Steve Wynn, has said his latest Strip project, the water-themed Paradise Park resort was still in the design phase. During an earnings call for investors in November, Wynn said the project was “six months into a 12- to 24-month planning phase.” Earlier this year, the renowned Las Vegas gaming exec revealed a rendering of the project and talked about its central feature, a lake with beaches and an island. During November’s conference call, Wynn said he was refining his plans and described how the project, and a few neighboring initiatives, might play out. “There will be an addition of meeting rooms and ballrooms on property that’s part of Wynn Las Vegas and Encore now, not part of the golf course project, as we up our convention profile,” he said. “Then, at the lagoon, there will be new rooms available on its north and south sides, and other features around the lake. And then there will be adjacent properties available for smaller operators on Paradise Road.” There has always been more uncertainty surrounding Alon, the thirdlargest project planned for a parcel of land just north of Fashion Show mall and directly across from Encore. The project is owned by Crown Resorts, Oaktree Capital and the CEO of the project, Andrew Pascal. In 2014, after buying the land, Crown Resorts said it expected a groundbreaking in the latter part of 2015. That never happened. Since that time, Alon management has said it’s working on completing the financing for the project, but no concrete news was ever released. And on Dec. 15, the future of Alon became more clouded when Crown Resorts announced it would not be proceeding with the project. In a see proje c ts, pag e 51

press release, the company said it was looking for ways to recoup its investment in Alon, including an outright sale. Responding to the news, Alon management said it will “continue to explore all of its options to advance the project and optimize the value for its stakeholders” and that it and that it considers the project “shovel-ready.” But that will be difficult. To move forward, Pascal would likely need to find someone else to purchase the land in addition to completing the funding to actually build, staff, and license the resort. However, in early December before Crown’s announcement, Pascal said much of the design for the new resort had been completed. “The project is very advanced in terms of its design,” Pascal said. “And while there are a number of spaces that still require a fair amount of design development, I would say a majority of the project has been fully evolved from a design perspective. “We haven’t revealed any specifics about the ultimate design. But the overall scale is quite different, and the composition of overall elements is quite different from what’s on the market today.” Other projects Aside from the three big ground-up projects being planned, there are several other remodels, additions and expansions underway. Here’s a short list: n Monte Carlo remodel: MGM Resorts International is revamping the Monte Carlo. The project will cost $450 million and will completely change the property, dividing it into two distinct hotels in one building: Park MGM and NoMad. Park MGM will be a 2,700-room luxury hotel tied thematically to MGM’s outdoor space the Park just to the south. NoMad will be a separate, smaller hotel with 292 guest rooms and suites, its own lobby, swimming pool, casino and restaurants. MGM says both projects are on schedule to be completed in 2018. n Aria convention center expansion: MGM is spending $154 million to add 200,000 square feet of space to the Aria Convention Center. The project will feature views of the Park, and MGM expects construction to be done in 2018. n MGM parking garage: To serve T-Mobile Arena, the Park Theater and its other properties, MGM is building a parking garage on the south side of Tropicana Avenue behind Excalibur. The garage is about 75 percent complete and should be done next spring.

Drivers will enter from Frank Sinatra Drive, Reno Avenue and Excalibur Drive. Pedestrians will enter and exit on the east through the existing Excalibur garage to the hotel/Strip or to T-Mobile Arena from an exit at the northwest end. There will be a walkway under Tropicana Avenue so pedestrians can get to the arena without walking to Las Vegas Boulevard. n The Wynn Plaza: A Wynn Resorts spokesman says this

75,518-square-foot shopping venue remains on schedule to open next fall. Plans call for a two-story retail building that will extend to Las Vegas Boulevard and will include the area inside Wynn Las Vegas where the Ferrari dealership used to be. n The Las Vegas Convention Center District: This project sits on the old site of the Riviera, now owned by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.

The first phase of the project was demolishing the Riviera and preparing the site for parking and outdoor convention use. The land has been paved and work is being completed on landscaping and fencing. That work should be done in January. The authority expects to open the site to parking in January and to its first outdoor convention, CONEXPO-CON/ AGG, in March after power and other infrastructure is finished.

“The gaming industry has invested many billions of dollars into smokefree casinos, with many major gaming companies such as MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment Corp. and Penn National Gaming leading the curve with experience in the design, build and operation of such facilities,” he said. Virginia Valentine, president of the Nevada Resort Association, said the trend is indeed toward providing more smoke-free options. “Providing a great workplace environment is very important to (association) members … and (Nevada) resorts offer a wide range of nonsmoking amenities including hotels, casino areas, meeting spaces, spas, fitness centers and restaurants,” Valentine said. “This industry has (also) invested heavily in new technology for filtration and air handling, which has greatly improved indoor air quality,” she added. Bar owners who lacked the financial means to make such investments, though, felt stung by the Clean Indoor Air Act. They criticized the exemption as a competitive disadvantage for them, as smokers would be driven away from their businesses and into casinos, where they could both eat and smoke. The law did not allow food to be served at establishments where smoking was permitted, so many bars closed their kitchens to keep their smokers. In 2011, the law was changed to allow bars to have both, so long as patrons under 21 years of age were prohibited from entering. nnn While Griff’s has yet to offer gaming, Griffin admits that pool and smoking historically have gone handin-hand, although major changes have taken place since the turn of the century. The Billiards Congress of America used to hold its national tournament at the Riviera. “When you’d put 5,000 pool players in the pool hall, the cloud of smoke was so thick you couldn’t breathe,” Griffin said. “About the year 2000, the BCA became the first major pool league to go completely nonsmoking for a national tournament, which was a huge statement. That first year was awkward, but since then, there’s been a movement, and now all the major tournaments are nonsmoking, which I think is just a sign of the times.”

Charitable efforts of Southern Nevadans are inspirational

or more years than I can remember, my family has gathered on Thanksgiving to give back to the community by feeding the homeless. Before we have our family meal together, we all head down to Catholic Charities to help serve meals to those less fortunate. This act of giving is something I wanted to teach my sons, and we began this tradition when they were young children. I’m blessed that they have wanted to continue this well into their adulthood. The act of giving is something that Southern Nevadans embrace, although it is often overlooked. Whether it’s Guest column: individuals and busishelley berkley nesses donating toys and bicycles to local drives for underprivileged children, or people donning Santa costumes to run through our streets for events benefiting developmentally challenged adults, examples of charity can be seen throughout the community. For the past three years, I have had the good

By coming together to address the needs of our community, we see that our collective efforts can make a profound difference. Although the act of giving is expected at this time of year, it must continue throughout the year. fortune to lead an institution committed to serving our community. Whether it is our students, faculty and staff volunteering their time with local organizations and events, or more organized activities like food and clothing drives for local nonprofit organizations, Touro University makes sure that service is central to its mission. Good deeds require that all of us come together to address community needs. When organizations partner together, wonderful things can happen. For instance, the Stallman Touro Clinic at the Shade Tree has been in operation since 2008, providing on-site medical care to the women and children temporarily housed at this shelter for homeless and abused women and children. Staffed by students and faculty from Touro, together with local physicians who volunteer their time, the clinic ensures these women and children can have their medical needs met. In 2014, Touro launched its first Mobile Healthcare Clinic, which provides free medical care to our

community’s homeless population in partnership with Catholic Charities. And just last month, we unveiled a second Mobile Healthcare Clinic, which provides medical care to clients and families at Opportunity Village. No organization can accomplish its mission in a vacuum. It requires partnerships with other businesses and nonprofits to address the needs of our region. Generous partners like NV Energy, the Engelstad Family Foundation, MGM Resorts Foundation, Zappos, Findlay Automotive Group and many more are contributing to our community’s philanthropic efforts. By coming together to address Las Vegas’ needs, we see that our collective efforts can make a profound difference. It is important to remember that although the act of giving is expected at this time of year, it must continue throughout the year. The needs of our community don’t end Dec. 31, and our charity must not, either. Touro embraces this commitment all year long, and I encourage other leaders who do well in business to also do good. The greatest gift of all is that we get back much more than we’ve given. Former Congresswoman Shelley Berkley is CEO and senior provost for Touro University’s Western Division.
