A boarded-up motel property on the Strip with a history of vandalism, vagrants and feral cats is under new ownership and slated to be torn down.
The Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota closed its $10.25 million purchase of the former White Sands Motel site last week, property records show.
The narrow, 1.1-acre parcel is surrounded on three sides by the former Route 91 Harvest festival site, most of which was purchased last year by the tribal group also known as Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation.
MHA Nation has now bought a total of 23 acres along the south Strip for $115 million combined.
