Another piece of Las Vegas history shut its doors for good last week when the Westward Ho closed down to make way for the building of an "Observation Wheel" on the Las Vegas strip which will be part of another master planned high rise resort to be built on the property.
Centex Destination Properties, one of the nation's leading builders operating in more than 90 U.S. markets in 25 states, has agreed to a purchase-and-sale agreement as managing partner of an established limited liability company that will purchase the property.
When the conga line of employees danced their way out of the historic Las Vegas Strip property around 5 p.m., they ended 40 years of business. And while I'm all for tradition, the bottom line is the Westward Ho really just became an eyesore on the strip and its time had passed. The property's in better hands with Centex - and I can't wait to see the artist renderings of this one!
