Las Vegas gets a new Retro Look!

Our good friend Bill Johnson, formerly with the Atomic Testing Museum, sent us this information and we wanted to share it with all of you.

Retro Vegas opens its doors to the public on First Friday, June 6, 2008. Our unique retail venue features a fully-restored pink kitchen including original metal cabinets, stainless steel stove-top, ovens and more. Our museum-quality furnishings capture time-honored traditional pieces with eclectic accessories. Locals and tourists alike will be amazed by our selection.

When neighbors dream together, they team together. Bill Johnson  and his partner, Marc Comstock, have joined with their neighbor Ben Nation (of Very Vintage Vegas fame) to open Retro Vegas. As long-time residents of the downtown area, we recognize the special qualities of our historic neighborhoods and the need to capture significant pieces before they vanish. New residents of the downtown core will find everything they need to furnish and accessorize their homes.

Retro Vegas is a retail boutique featuring antiques, furniture, accessories and art that capture the vibe of Las Vegas’s Rat Pack Days. Classic furnishings with decorative appointments are set in unique arrangements to compliment the burgeoning arts scene. We are located at 1211 South Main Street in the Las Vegas Arts District.

We are going to be there and we look forward to seeing you there as well!

I just stopped in and visted Retro Vegas yesterday afternoon and thought it was great. Just wished I had more time to sit and reflect on Vegas's golden years in the Baccanal Room or the Ceasar's Palace sign in their front window. Must go back soon. You can't miss their facade on Main Street -- Bright Pink amist gray brick facades. Very eye catching!
