ASL File#: LVA UA 184 Nevada Palace opened in July 1979, three months after Sam's Town, under the direction of casino veteran Gene Lucas and Los Angeles partners Rene Diaz, Dan Straub and Bill Gallagher. A year later, Lucas was gone and the property was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. On July 31, 1980, creditors moved on the property and forced the 201-room hotel to close for a day and the casino to shut down for 10 months. (from Las Vegas Review Journal, February 29, 2008) |
