    Default Some updates

    The Geo-Sleuths in Las Vegas have been busy. Look at this photo, look at the tower-like structure to the left of the ATC tower....

    And then, look at this update, posted by Vegas Eye....

    Default Nope, look for the white roof with antennas

    George, the tower is located near the 12:00 position of that photo and if you look at the photo link provided above you'll see a ground level view of it!

    What is the significance of this spot?
    When was it built?

    Default Where are all of you geo-sleuths?

    Shoveling snow or getting ready to be couch potatoes tomorrow perchance?

    That means my first wild guess is probably right, but I don't know exactly where it is in the complex.

    I'm guessing this is the new City Center in Las Vegas, just recently finished.

    Default One of three answers

    Yes, this is located in the new CityCenter development in Las Vegas, NV -- but you need to dig a little deeper to get the other answers.
