Fancy yourself as a true LV lover? Are you?!! Tell me what they're putting up here. The first person to chime in with the correct answer gets an "I Love LV" t-shirt. Not!
Okay, you're a WINNER. Let me know which hotel to send "the girls". Haha. By the way, here's a wider view. The construction is taking place at the far left. Yes, it's the OTHER ferris wheel that's going up in LV. It's a two horse race now. Whoever puts up theirs first will steal all the thunder. I actually prefer the view from this one. Riders will get to see the airplanes and helis taking off and landing as well as a great view of the Strip.
Ever since I first heard about this project, I was trying to figure out why anyone would invest in such a thing. The location is just awful. I'm not sure what the business model is like for something like this, but I have to assume you need a fair number of customers. If all you get is people knowing about it and making their way there, I can't see that being enough. At least with the Caesars wheel, you have a location where millions walk by there every year. Walking down a side street with shops isn't a big stretch. NOONE walks outside Luxor/Mandalay Bay on the outside. I even find it annoying to get to Trop/Hooters and I can't possible be alone in that feeling. Good luck to them in this uphill battle.
