The owner of the Trop (Aztar) said today that they "have not made a final decision" on the status of the Trop in Las Vegas, as of today.
They said they are still in the process of developing information/cost estimates on a PROPOSED new "mid-market" casino on the North property parcel, but would not answer questions beyond info given on todays conf call. They did give planned info like number of rooms: 2725, size of casino: 100,000 sq ft, retail & dining: 200,000 sq ft, parking garage: 3800 cars. They did also say it would not be a super luxury property like Wynn or Eshelon.
What I heard was no new information and no official annoucment on the closing of the existing Trop property. When asked about the Apr 15th date, they basically repeated the answer given in the past: "we may or may not extend the date until which we will accept reservations at Trop Las Vegas".
If I get any more info, I'll post it.
