You see them at nearly every casino: the gift shop. A North Las Vegas locals casino will try something different next week when the Cannery opens the Canteen.
The financial outlook appears to be improving for Las Vegas-based Cannery Casino Resorts LLC, despite the nonrenewal of its management contract for the Rampart Casino in Summerlin.
The state Gaming Control Board has recommended a license for Southern Nevada’s newest resort and for an Australian multinational company to make its first imprint on the Nevada market. In separate votes, the board unanimously approved a license for the $700 million M Resort at Las Vegas Boulevard South and St. Rose Parkway and a license for Australian casino giant Crown Ltd.
When the Eastside Cannery opens for business this evening, customers may notice a few vintage touches. The industry elite, however, will be focusing on the property’s price tag.
