Las Vegas Fontainebleau Overwhelms the Strip
Posted by Bruce Hiatt - June 5th, 2008
It’s one thing looking at Fontainebleau from Sky Las Vegas, the only luxury high-rise condo on the Strip in the Resort corridor at this time. From that viewpoint you only see Fontainebleau’s end angle making it feel like a boutique hotel and casino with an interesting geometric design. However, it’s quite another seeing Fontainebleau when driving North along the Strip as it truly overwhelms the Strip.

Recently, it was announced that Sands Corp.’s Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino on the Las Vegas Strip had been awarded Silver LEED Certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. According to GlobeSt.com, the USGBC named the approx. 3,000 room, multi-billion-dollar resort, the largest LEED-certified building in the world (saying it was four times larger than any other “green” project in the world).

Two new Las Vegas high-rise condominium projects have opened, Trump Las Vegas (sophisticated luxury) and Palms Place (edgy cool). These are not residential condo developments such as The Harmon Hotel, Spa & Residences, Veer Towers, Turnberry Place, Sky Las Vegas, or Mandarin Oriental. These are full blown condotel properties, a product which has suffered due to the challenged mortgage industry. Regardless, the projects (combined) add roughly $2 billion worth of new luxury hotels to the city. Inside we compare their lobbies and see some resale inventory off of the MLS.
