🥳 Happy birthday, Bunkerville!
The Nevada community was settled on January 7, 1877. To celebrate, the local library is handing out free cupcakes, which is kinda what a festival looks like in Bunkerville.
What's CITY Talking About
🧑🍳 How to Rank Las Vegas Restaurants
Michelin is getting ready to reveal its all-new dining guide to the Southwest United States, putting Las Vegas in play for those prestigious stars for the first time in more than 15 years. City Cast Las Vegas takes a look at the local chefs and restaurants worthy of the honor in an attempt to predict the future 🔮 [City Cast Las Vegas 🎧]
🚧 Time to Scrap Commercial Center for Good?
Demolition begins this month at Historic Commercial Center on the Commercial Arts Building. (You know, the ugly yellow one on the shopping center’s west side.) The fate of neighboring Orleans Square remains in question. Despite its vintage charm, the cost to bring the building up to code far exceeds the price to tear it down. [KVVU]
🚽 Tree Causes Toilet Trouble
A tree root grew so strong, it interfered with a sewer line under a house and destroyed a toilet 😳 The HOA, who owns and maintains the tree, now says it will do the homeowner of 20 years a favor and pay for about half the damage. The total cost — $14,685. [KLAS]
✈️ The Sphere Gets an Airline
In an attempt to make a splash during CES, Delta revealed it’s now the official airline of the Sphere with a fancy new lounge, exclusives for SkyClub members, and lots and lots of branding all over the high-tech venue. [TravelPulse]
- Delta gave a keynote address inside the Sphere during CES last year and City Cast Las Vegas had pics and video of what it looked like 👀
