Newest Las Vegas Hotel-Casino Opens Sept. 1230 August 2000Coast Resorts of Las Vegas said its Suncoast hotel-casino in the Summerlin district of Las Vegas will open at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 12 after a fireworks show. Officials originally hoped to open the locals' oriented property Friday, but that date was not firm and the goal was too ambitious.
Coast officials likely want to avoid situations like those experienced by the Venetian and Aladdin resorts in which visitors arrived at the scheduled opening times only to find the casinos not yet open because of last-minute work and testing. "Although we have successfully met all of our construction deadlines, we still must fulfill the requirements of fire/life safety testing. These extra few days will help us fine-tune a few things and give our customers a property that exceeds their expectations," said Coast Chairman Michael Gaughan. |
