Commissioners voted unanimously to approve the plan for the mixed-use development featuring 600-foot towers and a 439-foot amusement ride on 10 acres south of Fontainebleau Las Vegas at Las Vegas and Elvis Presley boulevards proposed by Las Vegas developer Brett Torino.
The towers would include a 750-room nongaming hotel and 425 condominium units. The easternmost 5 acres are also being considered for a 3,310-seat domed performance venue, which Fontainebleau is considering buying for $112.5 million.
Developers did not describe the amusement ride or whether it would be a thrill ride or an observation tower.
