Artist rendering of Fremont East Entertainment District

The city of Las Vegas has created a new entertainment district. Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas, the Fremont East Entertainment District sits adjacent to the popular tourist attraction Fremont Street Experience, which is visited, on average, by almost 21 million tourists each year.

The city of Las Vegas and Fremont East property owners have committed $5.75 million through a public-private partnership toward a major streetscape installation for the Fremont East Entertainment District. This expansive streetscape will include pedestrian-friendly street redesign, landscaping and retro neon signage. The city is capitalizing on popular nostalgia by reviving the old glamour of vintage Las Vegas. This installation is scheduled to begin in October 2006 and be completed by spring 2007.
