When and how the Tropicana hotel will be torn down is still up in the air as Bally’s Corp. executives wait for the Oakland Athletics to finalize their Las Vegas ballpark plans.
With the A’s planning to construct a $1.5 billion, 30,000-seat stadium on at least 9 acres of the 35-acre Tropicana site, the decades-old resort will have to be demolished to make way for the ballpark.
Soo Kim, chairman of Bally’s Corp. said details of that process are still being determined, as the A’s relocation effort with MLB plays out.
“I am still waiting for them to get through their stadium design process,” Kim told the Las Vegas Review-Journal Thursday in an email.
