Wynn to purchase land across from Wynn Las Vegas14 December 2017(PRESS RELEASE) -- Wynn Resorts announces it has reached an agreement to purchase approximately 38 acres of land on the Las Vegas Strip directly across from Wynn Las Vegas. The purchase includes the 34-acre site of the former New Frontier, formerly the Alon Resort site, as well as four additional acres connected to the site, for a total of $336 million. The agreement completes a unique assembly of contiguous real estate of approximately 280 acres that spans from the Las Vegas Convention Center on Paradise Road from the east to Industrial Road on the west. The combined frontage on the Las Vegas Strip is over 3,500 feet, including rights to approximately 1,000 acre feet of water. It is adjacent to nearly 6 million square feet of convention and exhibition space. The average cost of the full assembly of 280 acres is less than $3 million per acre. The future development of the land will further change tourist visitation patterns in Las Vegas, drawing more visitors to the north end of Las Vegas Boulevard and its collection of luxury resorts, including the existing Wynn Las Vegas and the Paradise Park development slated to begin construction in January 2018 on the site of the former Wynn Golf Course. |
