Celebrity Neon Sign- when it was still alive
Three days of food truck goodness at this years Las Vegas Foodie Fest ended this Sunday with tried staff and empty trucks. The busy weekend feature local and regional food trucks including the Great Food Truck Race’s Season 3 winner, Seoul Sausage Co.
Big long lines, lots of trucks and weather too hot for April as the crowds packed the festival. I could not believe that people where waiting for 3-5 hours to trying to get some a few White Castle burgers when there was other great options available.
Here are some photos of the trucks at the festival. Including the non invite Sin City Snoballs out front of Bass Pro Shops. Sorry about the poor photo quality (iPhone), the DSLR was out of juice. Enjoy anyway.

New pedestrian bridge Installed today, connecting City Hall and the Smith Center.
The last segment of the new pedestrian bridge between Las Vegas City Hall’s parking garage and the parking lot of the Smith Center for the Performing Art was set in place today. The new bridge crosses a triple set of railroad tracks providing a much needed link between the Symphony Park and the rest of downtown Las Vegas. The new bridge is for pedestrians only and connects the 3rd floor of City Hall’s parking garage to the parking lot for the Smith Center. Lifting and setting the last section of bridge hadto be timed carefully due to the every present train traffic on the Union Pacific Railroad.

Gold Spike Closed its doors on April 14, 2013 in Downtown Las Vegas
Another one for the history books. The Gold Spike Hotel and Casino closed its doors this weekend. The hotel was orginally opened in 1976 as the “Rendezvous” and has been sold a few times over the years. Again it was sold in 2008 to the Siegal Group who renovated the hotel and converted the adjoining Travel Inn Motel to the “Oasis at the Gold Spike” as a 52 room boutique hotel next door. In April 2013, it was reported that the property’s debt had been acquired by Tony Hsieh’s Downtown Project. Siegel then announced that it had sold the Gold Spike to the Downtown Project, the casino was closed on April 14.
UPDATE: It now open as Tony Hsieh’s new fraternity house.
