Architecture in Las Vegas

Pete Findlay Oldsmobile

 

 

On Thursday, June 4th, Untold Stories will look at Architecture in Las Vegas.  Most people tend to think that Las Vegas has very bland architecture with just cookie cutter type homes and McOffices.  But our past (and present) is filled with wonderous examples of soaring architecture and many of these wonderful buildings are still standing, though they may be harder to see these days buried behind new facades.

 

Panelists include:

Architect Eric Strain of Assemblage Studios

Karen Zick Goff, daughter of architect Walter Zick (who designed the Mint Hotel)

Brian "Buzz" Leming, neon designer

Check back as other panelists are added to the list!
