From dirt to finished product
THE PROGRESS
Welcome to our website dedicated to sharing the progress of the Durango Casino construction and our experience living in close proximity to a Las Vegas casino. As residents living across the street from the construction site, it has been fascinating to observe the rapid progress of the casino's construction. However, the early morning noise and dust have occasionally been disruptive to our daily lives. Despite this, we find the process intriguing and are excited to continue sharing updates with our readers. While many were initially opposed to the construction, we believe it has the potential to be an exciting addition to the area. Only time will tell, and we look forward to sharing our ongoing experiences with you.
In addition to sharing updates on the Durango Casino construction, our website will serve as your go-to guide for recommendations on where to eat, have fun, and visit in the local area. As locals, we offer a candid perspective on the best places to spend your hard-earned money. Our goal is to provide you with an insider's view of the area's hidden gems and must-visit spots.
We look forward to sharing our recommendations with you and helping you make the most of your time in Las Vegas.

THE BEGINNING
Back in 2018 when we first moved in, the plot of land across the street was nothing but an empty patch of dirt. A large sign claimed the property as belonging to Santa Fe Casinos, and rumors circulated that a casino might be built on the land. However, none of us really believed it would come to fruition. It's remarkable to see how much the area has changed in just a few short years. Now, as we watch the construction progress on the Durango Casino, it's a daily reminder of how much can happen in a short amount of time.

THE CONSTRUCTION
When news broke that construction would begin on the Durango Casino in 2022, it sparked mixed reactions throughout the community. While some were excited about the prospect of a new entertainment venue in the neighborhood, others expressed concern that the casino might bring crime and alcohol-related accidents. Personally, I'm excited about the convenience of having a nearby venue to celebrate New Year's Eve. Regardless of opinions, it's clear that the Durango Casino will have a significant impact on the local community, and we'll be sure to share our observations as the project progresses.

THE END RESULT
The Durango Casino is expected to be completed by the end of 2023, and it will feature a wide range of amenities, including multiple restaurants, pools, and other luxurious features. We're excited to share our experiences with these amenities and provide honest reviews of everything related to the casino and the up-and-coming neighborhood. This website will serve as a hub for all things Durango Casino, and we look forward to sharing our insights and recommendations with our readers. Stay tuned for updates as we approach the casino's grand opening.
