I think there is on major area of discussion not mentioned in this survey.
The reason there is a Las Vegas economy at all, is tourism. Las Vegas is a magical place to many people who don't live here.
Marketing Las Vegas to every city within a 4 hour plane ride is where some money should be spent. There is a need to go with one's strength, which are all the fabulous assets this city possesses.
One suggestion:
Mayor Goodman has a reputation in Vegas, but no one can deny he is flamboyant. He would someday make an excellent city ambassador to the rest of North America. His stunts like showing up with two beautiful show girls, is a real attention getter. Use his talent to help fill the hotel rooms, which is what will improve the economic situation we find ourselves in.
Welcome to the 1990's
This is just another step to drive all thoes disabled people out of Vegas.
It was time for the follies to go. They took Paris out of a parisian show.
Mobile billboards are an embarrassement to Las Vegas.
I have been through this sort of thing before in a different area. If your income is secure, one strategy is to simply ride it out, before you know it property values will be back to reasonable levels. Simple don't panic.
I live in Western Canada. We work for a Canadian airline, (second largest). We fly close to 17000 filled seats in and out of Las Vegas weekly. It's hard to find a seat on any of the planes. Las Vegas is still a strong attraction for a lot of Western Canadians. In fact I am actively trying to buy a second home in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas should study its marketing strength's and weaknesses and channel its promotion dollars to areas that will be the most productive.
I think it looks more like Elvis.
