Welcome Sperman.

Both Palazzo and Encore will be self contained resorts.
They each have their own casino, shops, restaurants, pools, spas, and front desks. They will, however, be run as one giant resort (accounting-wise) and their room count will be combined. When open Venetian/Palazzo will be the largest resort in the world with over 7,000 rooms.

Welcome to the forum Sperman!

Palazzo is it's own resort with casino and amenities but will also connect with Venetian.

Trump does not have a casino because it is built as a boutique non smoking hotel for those who do not want the long walks, smokey, noisy casino experience.

Hope that helps.

I saw something going on behind Caesar's a while ago, today I saw actual cranes, 2 to be exact. Pretty sure it has to be for the new tower.

Palazzo podium actually looks nice, love the greenery on top. Amazing what some awnings can do to the look as well.

GLC in the Palazzo is going to be more for banquets and very large parties. The one in the Venetian will operate as normal, although it will close temporarily for a thorough cleaning seeing that it has never closed since 99.

WOW!!!

I just counted 21 cranes on all in the bottom pic! They look like dragon flies
swaming around all over the place.

Looks like Encore has only a little bit more construction left to go!

Great pics Chicago3rd!

In reference to the Superfish mentioning that the Smith Center had been modeled off the Hoover Dam.
I hadn’t noticed it before, but looking at the latest pictures the Palazzo, it looks as if it has also borrowed many architectural features from the Hoover dam.

What are the 2 cranes in front of the Palazzo for?

If you're counting the entire Venetian-Palazzo complex, it will be the fourth highrise tower.

A few new Renderings

Enjoy,

Here's an image I found of a Hershey's store going on to the Strip.
It looks like it's on the corner of the Cosmo to me.

Here's an image advertising the new water ride going into the Tropicana.

I thought the water ride may have just been a rumor, however,
the Tropicana website confirms they are planning on installing one.

Vegas Grows Up · #**3420** Posted **Nov 28, 2007, 10:27 PM**

That Hershey's render does look very nice and fun for the strip. I hope it is at Cosmo!
