It should look pretty cool with the giant wheel across the street.

Las Vegas is coming back.

Any other natives notice that street lights have been getting changed out a lot lately? I personally like the new lights, they are a lot less intense, have less glare and just generally cast a better quality light. I do sort of miss the old ones though for some reason.

The name SLS is just setting this hotel up for a little verbal abuse and a nickname that might spread. After some losing sessions people are going to say gambling there left them Shit out of Luck Son. Not sure I'd want the image of my hotel/casino to leave people thinking their luck is going to suffer when they visit.

Yes we are replacing them with new LED energy lights . there in my neighborhood om 89145 . But i agree it wont be the same driving into Las Vegas without the beautiful gold lights

And this is amazing Las Vegas is back and will be even better than ever .

I hadn't noticed the street lights changing, but I have noticed left turn lights are changing.

Instead of a green arrow, then a yellow, then a "Yield on solid Green", they've change left turn lanes to green arrow, yellow arrow, red arrow, then yellow flashing arrow if the computer deems it acceptable.

There's an intersection near me that I won't turn left thru any more if there are more then 3 cars waiting. I sat at that light once through 3 cycles. 3 cars got through the first time, and the "yellow flashing" never came on.

On the next cycle, 3 cars got through, and there was only 1 car coming the opposite way. Again, no flashing yellow, even though there was no one in the crosswalk and no oncoming traffic.

Same thing the third time.

I've seen them mostly on the west side, but did see a couple in Henderson recently also.

In principle, a flashing yellow arrow system is way more efficient than a green circle light to allow yielding left turns. If the oncoming traffic has both a green circle and a green arrow, so that your way has to have a red circle light, there's no reason not to let you turn left if no traffic happens to be coming, and there's no better way to do that than with a flashing yellow. It's also safer, and becoming the nationwide standard. However, traffic engineers will have to calibrate them properly. And Las Vegas drivers will have to get used to them: I've seen several times where the flashing yellow arrow comes on at the same time as the red circle light, and the left turn drivers don't turn even when there's no oncoming traffic because they're confused. So it will take a while, but should be better in the long run.

I found a bit more info on Project Linq. I think it may be out dated, but its still interesting.

I'm not sure what to think of the warehouse look.

Great news about the SLS Hotel. I like the fact that they restore old hotels rather than implode and rebuild—not only is it cost-saving it's also green-conscious. I stayed at the SLS Beverly Hills a couple of times and it was a fabulous experience. I'm looking forward to staying at the LV SLS when it opens, it's certain to do wonders for that end of the strip.
