Interesting progression going on. First, the Wells Avenue Conservation District was established which is basically Holcomb to Kirman. Then West of Wells neighborhood gets sliced off, Wells to South Virginia. Now "Midtown" is Holcomb across SVA to Plumas. The urban hipsters seem to be moving their focus westward into the more profitable and sustainable SVA corridor.

I wanted to say that I really enjoyed your establishment on the Vampire Crawl. I bartend down town and will definitely send customers your way. I do want to let you know my entry into your place was un-pleasant. A door guy let his friends through the line which was fine. I just did not appreciate his friends knocking my I'D out of my hand and then trampling on my hand when I bent down to pick it up. I was standing right in front on the door man and all he could say was..."thanks for waiting." Other than that you have a great place and I will think about coming back.

Both my parents died from cancer so no, I wouldn't boo that. When Nando cures cancer he'll have my support.

At least Leal is trying to improve downtown Reno, instead of sitting around like you guys with your finger up your posterior, complaining. AKB would probably boo a cure for cancer.

I wonder what Jeff Meyers would like to see take the Silver Legacy's place?

@Jeff You *want* the Silver Legacy to close?!? Yeah, that's *real* constructive. Just what we need, yet another abandoned building in the heart of Downtown Reno. I never thought I'd ever see a CAVE actually be so honest and upfront about what they want to have for the future of our great city: abandonment and utter failure.

Funny how the price range of these almost tripled in a year and a half. I guess now that they gave the complex a fancy name they can double the price??

I wish I could have been part of putting this together, but I will definitely come down to be a member when I get moved to Reno. Congratulations. It looks beautiful.

Amber presented to the Ward 1 NAB and the interesting bit, at least to me, will be the edible landscaping that is being planned.

I consider myself a pro on hospitality in this market and without a doubt, Silver Legacy is going nowhere. This is a 1700 room megaresort in the core of Downtown Reno, no one person would let this go under no matter how bad their debt is. It could be worse, but $142 million is a lot. They'll get it taken care of and Silver Legacy will continue to be a major player in this region as it always has been. Just because a property is struggling with debts, doesn't mean it's failing. Planet Hollywood Resort in Las Vegas was in debt more than $300 million and that was assumed by Harrah's now Caesars Entertainment when they bought it. Similar scenario, it was just purchased by another company. CityCenter, also in Vegas, almost put MGM Resort under. Silver Legacy is no exception, Reno is not dying, we're alive we're still a tourist attraction and so is Silver Legacy along with it's neighbors.

I agree with Nadine Pranfield. Since this is a shared property with the MGM Resorts International, this could result in the dissolving of said partnership and full ownership by the Caranos. I don't the the Legacy will close. I do think MGM may pull out and leave Circus Circus hanging though.

I agree with DTM Dude, I think since both parties have a vested monetary interest they will find a way to keep the doors open.

Restructuring is a good thing. Would not be surprised if the Caranos end up with the building.

Digging the wide sidewalks! Now if only we could get the Wild Orchid and the Ponderosa flop house to shutter their doors ...but I digress....
