Main Street Station Sign
Fantastic shadow being cast from the sign on top of the Main Street Station Hotel and Casino and Brewery in Las Vegas. There’s actually two signs, which means we can see it backwards too. Nice.
Useless fact about this hotel? The men’s toilet off the main casino floor contains a large piece of the Berlin Wall to which the urinals are affixed. Apparently the Travel Channel voted it Las Vegas’ number 2 historic bathroom.
Only number 2? I wonder what on earth number 1 was…
Thanks Gwaer and Babaganoosh.
“a large piece of the Berlin Wall to which the urinals are affixed”
How Ironic.
heh, cool. Not my best find, but I’ll take it.:-)
Travel Channel documentary picks: “Las Vegas’ Top 10 Bathrooms.”
And the winners are:
Liberace’s villa, where Mr. Showmanship once greeted TV viewers from
a tub full of bubbles. Complete with a chandelier and fountain, “it’s
Las Vegas history,” Martin says of the bathroom suite. “You can’t
pass that one up.”
Mandalay Bay’s rumjungle gets a look in part because of its unusual
unisex lounge, where “men and women mix,” Martin says. “It’s the
cruisiest bathroom in town.”
The Main Street Station’s men’s room — complete with a piece of the
Berlin Wall — earns the “best historic bathroom” designation, while
Caesars Magical Empire scares up a “best haunted bathroom” nod with
its catacomblike setting and ghostly images appearing in the mirrors.
The Hilton’s SpaceQuest casino wins the “best themed bathroom”
competition with its high-tech “Star Trek” look, Martin notes, while
the Rio claims the “best high-roller bathroom” title, thanks to a
luxurious penthouse suite’s panoramic Strip view, bathroom butler
service and other amenities. And, just across Flamingo Road, the
Palms boasts the “most secretive bathroom” in a suite where the
bathroom jacuzzi is concealed directly behind the bedroom headboard.
The Viva Las Vegas Villa’s Gothic suite makes the cut with its
Dracula-like atmosphere, right down to the coffin-shaped bathtub.
ESPN Zone wins the “best sports bathroom” pennant with TV monitors
that enable fans to keep up with the action even when nature calls.
Planet Hollywood claims “best bathroom mirrors” with a biting “Jaws”
motif, while Paris Las Vegas earns an honorable mention for the
elegant luxury of its public toilettes.
