Oui, OP, j'aime bleau.

by Anonymousreply 1October 20, 2023 6:24 AM

C’est bleu.

by Anonymousreply 2October 20, 2023 6:30 AM

Quite dreadful. There is too much tackiness. That blue carpet looks disgusting.

by Anonymousreply 3October 20, 2023 6:44 AM

I hope the toilets are in working order.

Can one get a bleau job there?

Another part of the building

It looks kind of horrible, these are the colors of an airport lounge. Shouldn’t it remind you of Miami Beach? Where are the hot pinks and greens?

What r6 said. This fountain blows.

by Anonymousreply 7October 20, 2023 3:42 PM

Fountain Blows! That’s catchy R7. May I borrow it?

I believe the space shown at R6 is the convention area, that’s why it looks so sparse.

Vegas needs a success right now. This place is huge, and a cool reception might be a bad sign. I hope the success of the MSG Sphere, will spill over to this place.

It opens in December, I’ll be in Las Vegas in January. Will try to make it to the Fountain Blows.

I asked Midjourney to design a casino floor using Miami Modern design (the Bacardi Building) as inspiration.

This took 40 seconds.

It looks dated to me. The Wynn is still the best.

It took them 15 years to open this place and it looks like this???

by Anonymousreply 12October 20, 2023 6:02 PM

I think it looks great but Resorts World is a flop and FB will be competing with Wynncore for high end guests. I'm hoping it succeeds because Vegas needs it, but for me, the odds are against it.

This one was inspired by the Clevelander

It’s a casino! By their nature they’re supposed to be a little over the top tacky. Look at Circus Circus or any mid brand cruise ship.

Casinos aren’t supposed to be bland.

by Anonymousreply 16October 20, 2023 6:14 PM

R16, I might agree with you but as Vegas moved away from the themed hotels, they all were bland. The recent Strip builds, Aria and Resorts World are like that. Also, RW was going to have a Chinese theme with a Panda exhibit but that was all scrapped.

by Anonymousreply 17October 20, 2023 6:27 PM

New casinos like Aria, Wynn and Cosmopolitan themeless but themeless but they are hardly bland.

Fontainebleau looks like the United Club at the airport.

by Anonymousreply 18October 20, 2023 6:30 PM

This is literally the color scheme

I think Aria seems amazingly like FB in their mall/airport ambiance. Wynncore is the obvious standard for Vegas luxury. High end travelers no longer say they're going to Vegas for the weekend, they say they're going to the Wynn.

When it's fully depreciated, they'll cut the maintenance/housekeeping budgets to the bone. Then it will become just another rat/roach/bedbug infested joint in LV like Circus Circus.

Aria isn’t airport like

This is how a casino should look

Aria and Cosmopolitan were initially going to be housing developments, that’s why they seem restrained and not themed.

What mental illness makes people throw their money away?

by Anonymousreply 24October 20, 2023 6:47 PM

Cosmo but not Aria was going to be condos. Aria was always pitched as a resort.

Airport lounge at the Aria.

R24 gambling. Gambling is a legitimate illness like alcoholism.

by Anonymousreply 27October 20, 2023 6:49 PM

Yes the lobby/check in area of Aria is airportlike but lots of the casinos are like that.

New Year’s Eve with Post Malone!

Well, that sweetens the pot.

by Anonymousreply 29October 20, 2023 6:52 PM

I love Posty but his last record was a legit flop. This has been in the works for a while but it also makes me wonder what audience they're going for. Even if it wasn't their target audience if FB had booked Taylor, that would have been newsworthy. BTW, those ticket prices seem shockingly low.

It sounds like a South African city.

R31 maybe that’s because South Africa was settled by the Dutch & French.

Looks like a newly built Swiss luxury clinic. In the German part of Switzerland. zzzzzzzzzzzzz
