Final Riviera tower imploded

Message non lu par Monsieur G » 21 août 2016, 22:56

Un autre chapître de Las Vegas qui se ferme après 60 abs d'existence faisant de plus en plus de place à ce freakshow qu'est devenu cette ville.
J'ai connu de très bon moment à cet endroit :D

Final Riviera tower imploded, closing chapter of Las Vegas history

Boom. And it’s gone.



Blasts razed the final tower of the Riviera Hotel and Casino early Tuesday morning, putting to rest that piece of Las Vegas history. The tower fell at precisely 2:30 a.m.

Today’s implosion garnered less fanfare than the first one, which decimated the Riviera’s 24-story Monaco Tower amid a party-like atmosphere early June 14. A fireworks show and VIP area with live music, food, drinks and showgirls preceded that event.

By 1 a.m., a small crowd had gathered across from the Riviera on Las Vegas Boulevard. Most onlookers snapped final photos of the vintage Las Vegas casino all dressed up in unseen explosives that would soon level it.

"This is like history right here," said Dan Teson as he pointed to the dark, 17-story Monte Carlo tower and other remaining buildings. "It's got weird architecture compared to everything else on the Strip."
