(Las Vegas).- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has given the green light for construction of a new 699-foot skyscraper on the site of Casino Royale on the Las Vegas Strip.
The FAA-approved study – sponsored by Casino Royale, located at 3411 Las Vegas Blvd. – details that any “determination will be final on August 30, 2023 unless a timely petition is filed.”
If approved and built, the new tower would be one of the largest buildings in Las Vegas, behind only the Strat and the yet-to-be-opened Fontainebleau. The Casino Royale, which is directly across from the Mirage Volcano, has to be demolished to make way for the new building.
According to the approved aeronautical study, the FAA authorization for the building expires on January 21, 2025, which means construction must begin before then.
The 11-page public notice stated that “the proposed structure is in the mediation of significant and frequent helicopter air tour operations at LAS (Harry Reid International Airport) and the Las Vegas Strip” and that this portion was being investigated and public opinion was sought. The letter also states that you must submit another form to the FAA at least 10 days before construction begins, and within five days after construction reaches its greatest height.
Plans for the proposed Clark County project have not yet been filed.
Calls to both the name of the sponsor listed in the report, Craig Dudley, and the sponsor's representative, Capitol Airspace Group, were not returned by press time. Casino Royale is owned by Best Western, which also could not be reached for comment.
