The developers of a North Strip resort with an NBA-ready arena cleared their first hurdle Tuesday when the Winchester Town Advisory Board unanimously recommended approval of their multibillion-dollar project at the former Wet n’ Wild site between Fontainebleau Las Vegas and the Sahara.
Representatives of LVXP, a team of Las Vegas-based real estate professionals that hopes to build a 752-foot, 2,605-unit hotel and condominium project with an 18,000-seat arena and a 6,000-seat theater, fielded questions from board members and residents of nearby properties before winning support of the town board to the Clark County Commission. The proposed resort also would have a casino, restaurants and other retail.
