City
Approves
Final
Plans
-
Work
to
Start
Later
This
Year
The
City
of
Las
Vegas
approved
the
final
plans
summated
by
THE
CIM
Group
for
the
total
refurbishing
of
the
Lady
Luck.
The
final
hurdle
was
the
bridge
between
the
two
towers.
Mayor
Goodman
was
concerned
that
the
bridge
would
block
the
view
of
the
Mob
Museum
from
pedestrians
along
Third
St.
The
bridge
will
be
stripped
down
and
glass
side-walls
will
be
installed.
Work
is
expected
to
begin
later
this
year
with
completion
slated
for
2012.
Let's
chat

Lady
Luck
Back
in
Planning
Stages
After
a
recession
induced
hiatus,
The
CIM
Group
is
back
in
front
of
the
planning
commission
with
their
latest
plans.
The
three
biggest
roadblocks
are
issues
with
trees
along
Ogden,
the
bridge
between
the
two
towers,
and
egress
onto
Stewart
Ave. CIM
will
iron
out
these
issues
and
hopefully
get
the
plans
approved
at
the
next
meeting
on
June
24th,
2010.
The
plans
include:
- A
full
remodel
of
the
634
rooms
and
all
public
spaces
- A new
17,250
sq.
ft.
pool
and
amenities
deck
above
the
existing
casino
- A very
simplified
(glass)
remodel
of
the
bridge
that
connects
the
two
towers
- 8,500
sq.
ft.
of
new
meeting
space
- Spa
and
fitness
center
- A new
porte
cochère
on
the
east
side
The
plans
also
call
for
street-friendly
architecture
along
Third
St.
Designed
to
look
like
several
different
"old-city"
buildings.
This
blends
it
in
with
the
streetscape
on
the
other
side
of
Third
St.
where
Hogs
&
Heffers,
Triple
George
Grill
and
sidebar
reside.

NEWS 9/22/07 The old
Lady's new owners announce bigger plans.
The now named CIM Group (the partnership between CIM LL Las Vegas
LLC and Andrew Dooner) are seeking to buy the buildings along Third
Street between Ogden and Fremont. They wish to create a retail and
entertainment corridor which will draw pedestrians up Third Street's
Frank Wright Plaza to the new Lady Luck. They also plan to remove
the bridge between the two Lady Luck towers, giving visitors a
better view of the old library (which is being transformed into a
Mob Museum).
There's also a possibility of up to
three new hotel towers. No mention was made as to the fate of the
existing towers. The land owned by CIM Group also includes the area
around the old library, including the current transportation center
which the city plans to relocate. This land is big enough for a
major project and may ignite more development in the area.
