Vintage Homes and Buildings of Las Vegas

Here are ten portraits from my series of Vintage Homes of Las Vegas. I included descriptions in some, which I tried to keep unobtrusive by allowing the type to fade into the background at times.

South side of Las Vegas

 This time we ventured into Luxor territory and beyond! Went down the south end of the strip and ended up at the fabulous Las Vegas sign..

City Center

This was the week that we converged on City Center. It's funny how many places I haven't been to in Las Vegas. I mean, I only live here, right?

We heard some young guys comment on the "fishing lure" 
on their way by. I guess they've never seen a typewriter!


I don't think I can afford to walk through here...


fire and water





City Center-full of reflections









 Interesting sculpture-made up of canoes..
