“I know we’re all very sensitive to those issues, but it’s compelling when you have 25,000 applications for just under 2,000 jobs,” Gaming Commissioner Brian Krolicki said. “It’s not as much international, but we’re starting to see people who want to seek a different experience from the Strip coming out to our properties for something that’s more of a resort-like feel so we continue to take advantage of that.” “We have seen over the past five years a strong uptick of regional and national visitation,” Kreeger said.
When asked if the property will target international visitors, Red Rock Resorts President Scott Kreeger said it is predominantly focused on local residents for gaming and amenities but it hopes to draw in people from outside Las Vegas with the three luxury properties’ hotels. The property will boast 83,000 square feet of casino space with 2,300 slot machines, 63 table games and a high-limit gaming salon, Horn said. Four signature restaurants, all with outdoor patios, will include a steakhouse, an American grill that also serves brunches, and seafood and Mexican concepts, and a food hall with 10 outlets will be in the casino environment. The hotel also will have convention and meeting spaces, a pool with cabanas, and outdoor social areas.
