Golden Gate Hotel and Casino’s New Logo
The Golden Gate Hotel and Casino in Downtown Las Vegas recently changed their logo, and it looks great. At first glance, you wonder what it means? It is the number “1” and the letter “F” in the middle. This is for their address – 1 Fremont Street. There are two lines on each side of the “1F” that resemble the lighting on the outside of the hotel and casino. It is shaped in an arch like on the Golden Gate Bridge.
The Golden Gate Hotel and Casino opened in 1906 and was called Hotel Nevada when it opened. It was the first hotel in Las Vegas. It was then renamed Sal Sagev (Las Vegas spelled backwards). This hotel received the first phone number in Las Vegas “1”.
In 1974 it was renamed The Golden Gate and it has a San Francisco theme. It has 122 rooms and suites. On June 1st they opened the first Circa Sports Book, named for the new 777-room Circa Resort and Casino being built across Fremont Street from the Golden Gate.
The Golden Gate, The D and the under construction Circa Resort are owned by Greg and Derek Stevens.
Circa Sports Book Opens in The D Casino
The Circa Sports Book opened at The D Hotel and Casino on the 2nd floor on June 19th, and it looks great. Where are the seats? I guess you could sit at the remodeled VUE Bar or the Long Bar to watch your game. This was a former William Hill Sports Book that has had a top to bottom remodel.
Burger Sports Grill at Bally’s & Paris Resorts Receiving Facelift
Burger Brasserie Sports Grill at the Bally’s and Paris Resorts on the Las Vegas Strip started a remodel this past week. The restaurant remains open. Both resorts are owned by Caesars Entertainment.
STRAT Hotel, Casino & Skypod to move Poker Room
The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Skypod (former Stratosphere) will be moving the Poker Room to the second floor, while they continue the remodel of the casino. This is in the same space they used for a temporary Sports Book. The STRAT is owned by Golden Entertainment.
Portion of Las Vegas Strip to close for pedestrian bridge work
Work on a new pedestrian bridge will close parts of the Strip this week.
Installation of beams and girders for the new bridge going over Las Vegas Boulevard South from Park Avenue, linking Park MGM and the MGM Grand, will affect traffic overnight.
