Absolutely none. Looks worse than ever. Sitting there fenced off with pieces literally falling off it.
Meanwhile, Resorts World across the street is starting to actually look like something. Growing bigger almost daily. It is going to be huge. In the last couple weeks, they started to put some of the outer "skin" on some of the lower floors. Oddly, they seem to have chosen the Wynn color. A shiny copper-ish color.
Ground has also been broken for the convention center expansion in that same general area. Most of the construction has started at the Paradise Road side, but it is supposed to connect through to the strip where Riviera used to sit, right by the big blue monster.
update: after posting the above, I goggled Resorts World Las Vegas, looking for a completion date. What popped up was an article 1 day old where Wynn is suing because Resorts World has chosen the same colors. That's funny.
