Description
Las Vegas is hearing heavy metal, not from the usual clink and clatter of slot machines, but from the heavy iron flexing its muscles on some of the country’s largest, most ambitious projects. The city’s famed Strip, a four-mile-long swath of Las Vegas Boulevard, is lined with hulking mega-resort casinos that are constantly being renovated, expanded, imploded and built anew to turn concrete and steel into cash.
