LAS VEGAS | Lucky Dragon Hotel & Casino | FT | 10 FLOORS

The design has also changed since first announced and is being sold with dramatic help from lush renderings by EV&A Architects. The same "lucky" red exterior color remains, but the concept is sleeker, more mature and clearly aiming to draw visitors at this end of the Strip away from their very close neighbor SLS Las Vegas.

Utilizing the same EB-5 program as Resorts World, SLS and the Downtown Grand, the aim is to attract foreign investors with the promise permanent residency, better know as a "Green Card" for "you, your spouse and children under 21 by investing $500,000 into a US government designated program."

They can then take advantage of "multi-lingual staff and signage" servicing 201 "high end guest rooms and suites appointed in modern Asian style" and a "secluded pool with private bar."

Down on the casino floor, the focus is on "Baccarat, Pai Gow, Fan Tan and Sic Bo." Keeping the boutique feel, there will be "approximately 600 slot machines." By comparison, SLS Las Vegas hosts about 800 machines. Lucky Dragon will add "approximately 60 table games" and "Feng Shui designed high limit lounges."

A 2016 completion date has still been recently touted. The site is currently an empty lot.
