In Las Vegas and the Nevada Preservation Foundation has reportedly presented the 995-room Plaza Hotel and Casino with the unique designation of being a ‘building of historical significance’.
According to a Tuesday report from the Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper, the first-of-its-kind categorization comes as the 22-story property is preparing to celebrate its 50th birthday in just over six weeks’ time. Owned by British private investments firm Tamares Group, the Plaza Hotel and Casino with its 80,000 sq ft casino purportedly received a further boost late last week when the Nevada Gaming Control Board cleared it to begin operating without coronavirus-related capacity restrictions.
