"Tropicana Las Vegas: From Bond's Stay to Closure and Demolition"

The iconic Tropicana Las Vegas resort is closing after 67 years to make way for a new Major League Baseball stadium, marking the end of an era for one of the city's longest-standing Strip casinos. The aging property, once considered a luxurious retreat and known for its entertainment, will be demolished later this year, leaving the Sahara as the only remaining Strip resort from the 1950s. While the closure is bittersweet for some, the city of Las Vegas is embracing the transformation and looking forward to new opportunities.
