Convention center expansion explored

Friday, April 6, 2001 | 11:12 a.m.

Mandalay Resort Group is considering a "substantial" expansion of its convention center at Mandalay Bay on the Las Vegas Strip, a top company official said today.

John Marz, vice president of marketing, said the expansion is being considered because of heavy demand for convention space at Mandalay Bay. Details are still being worked out, he said, though he said the expansion would likely occur on vacant land next to the existing convention center. Such a project would not exclude long-discussed plans to put a mall between Mandalay Bay and the Luxor resort, Marz said.
