A mural and bronze bust of the late Tony Hsieh, former CEO of online shoe and clothing retailer Zappos, was unveiled in downtown Las Vegas last week. Commemorating a legacy: DTP Companies organized a series of celebrations on Dec. 11, known as "Tony Hsieh Day," to mark what would have been the entrepreneur’s 50th birthday. The festivities included the renaming of the Zappos Council Chambers to "Tony Hsieh Theater," an art car showcase and a musical variety show at Downtown Container Park, among others.
The City of Las Vegas and some companies headquartered in the downtown area are celebrating the late Tony Hsieh with several events in honor of his birthday this weekend.
