There is a large sign posted on Durango Drive just off the 215 that reads “Future site of a Stations Casino”. I went online to learn more about this but could find much.
Here is an aerial view of the proposed casino site. As you can see, there’s not much to it but dirt and rocks right now but it’s quite a large plot of land.
An old article from the Las Vegas Review-Journal announced the planned construction of the new casino back in April 2005. This article described the new “Durango Station” as a 120,000 square foot resort hotel with a movie theater and bowling alley (much like Red Rock). These will be welcome attractions in our area since residents need to travel to other areas of the city for these forms of entertainment. If the new Durango Station is anything like Red Rock or Green Valley Ranch then we’ll also get some good restaurants, a few bars and maybe even a dance club.
