Allen said the tower, which is similar to one built at the company’s flagship Hard Rock Hollywood near Fort Lauderdale, Florida, will be between 500 feet to 660 feet tall. Hard Rock initially proposed a 998-foot, guitar-shaped hotel tower, but the concept was rejected by Clark County. But Allen, who also serves as chairman of Seminole Gaming, said the property “sits on the 50-yard line” of the Strip, which calls for an iconic feature. That means the faux volcano, a focal point of the tropical island-themed Mirage when it was opened by Steve Wynn in 1989, will be demolished.Įarlier this year, fans of the volcano conducted a “save the volcano” petition drive, collecting as many as 5,000 signatures. One of the new features is an all-suite guitar-shaped tower at the front of the property alongside the Strip. Much of the surrounding spaces, such as the pool areas and outside grounds along the 77-acre site, will be demolished and reconfigured. During a nearly three-hour presentation, Allen told the control board The Mirage would be stripped down to its concrete shell.
