Many of the thousands who made their way to Fontainebleau to take in the ambience of the first Strip megaresort to open in 2½ years found themselves looking up a lot — or at their smartphone screens.
Some were gazing up at the 42-foot ceilings. Some spotted the massive chandeliers. Others admired the art pieces, including the 46-foot “Lovers #3” sculpture by Urs Fischer.
You can only see them by looking up, the same way Strip pedestrians must peer skyward to see the 67th floor of Nevada’s tallest habitable building.
Of the guests who meandered the casino floor and public areas Thursday morning…many seemed most surprised with how vast Fontainebleau is and they were all intently capturing it all on video as they walked through.
