In the old days hotels in Las Vegas were mostly all laid out in a similar pattern. The footprint was a three corner star. slot machines up front, cashiers cage and restaurants in the back. Very simple. The cage was in the back for security, the restaurants were in the back for one specific reason. In order to get there, the customer had to pass all those nice slot machines with their flashing lights and tempting jackpots. If each customer on his way. The second reason was, several restaurants could be serviced out of one kitchen. Now news comes over the wires about a whole new concept in casino design. A huge hotel in the shape of a guitar has been announced. I is to replace Treasure Island. Work is supposed to start soon. http://www.casino.comThe image is of an existing guitar hotel at the Seminole reservation in Florida. We expect a similar design for Las Vegas, albeit not as large. We will keep you posted.
