Letter: Tower plan should be axed

Friday, Oct. 17, 2003 | 5:43 a.m.

The Station Casinos corporation is asking for a variance to permit two hotel towers to be taller than the 100-foot requirement that was set in 1997. The towers would be built on the south side of Charleston Boulevard and east of Interstate 215.

This shouldn't happen. Garish signage and artificial impediments belong on or near the Strip. The natural beauty of our mountains and Red Rock Canyon should be left alone to be enjoyed by residents and tourists alike.
