Station Casinos has officially opened the Durango resort and casino in Las Vegas
The 15-story resort is located just a few miles southwest of the Las Vegas Strip. It marks the operator's seventh property outside the city's main gaming thoroughfare. With a price tag of $780 million, the project is primarily aimed at local patrons rather than international tourists.
Durango was built on a 29-acre site that Station Casinos, a subsidiary of Red Rock Resorts Inc., acquired back in 2000. The facility features a casino with slot machines and table games, as well as a sports betting area. Additional amenities include restaurants, meeting spaces, and free parking. Accommodations are available in a 200-room hotel.
Durango is the first new casino to open in Las Vegas since June 2021, when the 66-story Resorts World debuted with a $4.3 billion investment. Next week, a 67-story casino resort, Fontainebleau, will open on the northern end of the Strip, with a construction cost of $3.7 billion. The development of Fontainebleau has been ongoing since 2007.
Founded in 1976, Station Casinos began its journey with a bingo hall and has since grown into a major operator employing over 11,000 people. In recent years, the company has demolished several older properties in Southern Nevada and sold off the vacant land. However, it still holds at least six undeveloped parcels on the outskirts of Las Vegas and at the southern end of the Strip.
Notably, new regulations for socially responsible gambling advertising are being introduced in the United Kingdom.
