The Boardwalk hotel casino will be closing its doors forever on January 9th to make way for MGM Grand's CityCenter Project. The site is to be cleared for the start of construction on the $5 billion dollar 66-acre parcel development which will include a 60-story, 4,000-room hotel-casino, boutique hotels, retail shopping, and 1,640 luxury condo hotel units targeted for a late 2009 completion date.
The Boardwalk is the Rodney Dangerfield of Las Vegas as it's currently located right by the city's best known resorts but never got any respect. Most people never even heard of it. MGM will certainly change that quickly.
And who can forget Dangerfield's character in the classic movie "Caddyshack" where he played milionaire Al Czervik - and how did Czervik make all his money?... Condo development!
