Tram station, but same difference. Found one exterior pic, and one you-tube vid that flashes the interior.
Can't find any special significance, except for a fire station below it, but it did open Dec. 1st.

Twilight,
I really liked that photo that shows the fire station directly below the tram station. It's a little unusual to have a county fire station paid for by hotel corporation -- Mirage/MGM.
This is the Bellagio Station of the (free) train that connects Bellagio with the Monte Carlo Hotel with stops at the Crystals shopping mall.
The "special significance" was a misnomer -- I had thought when I posted this photo that this tram station location was very close to the site of the former "fake" roller coaster -- but I was off by at least 1/4 mile....
So... I think you and GLC nailed this one! More photos from City Center here, and here and here.

I've blurred the sign a bit to make it not instantly readable, but we'll see. But where is this?

Two word title and there's a USGS monument.... Oregon Trail... nah. We might need a little more of a clue here
This marker is NOT a Historical landmark, but it was considered worthy of this little park in it's honor, in the middle of a Soybean field.
And perhaps related to a first-of-its-kind train robbery?

Right part of the country, but, as I said, the location is NOT noteworthy for it's history.
...And then I thought it might be the place where soybeans were grown for the first time to create soy milk in the USA.
Not historic eh?
How close to Iowa is this?
Wild guess -- but this would be historic... Clear Lake, Iowa - Buddy Holly Crash Site?
Mark
It's a state that borders Iowa
The geographic center of the US?
It would appear there is a benchmark, and if its not historical in nature, it would seem that it has be noteworthy simply because of its location.
However, I don't think that's right, because it doesn't look like western South Dakota (center of the 50 states) but Kansas (center of the 48) doesn't border Iowa - and neither does North Dakota which could be the center of North America.
