Bye Bye Riviera

Another iconic hotel in Vegas has disappeared from the skyline. In June, the landmark Riviera Hotel was imploded. Many of the new hotels are beautiful and have so much to offer but I can't help feeling a little bit sad every time another "hot spot" from the 1950s and 1960s disappears. "The Riv" was home to Liberace for many years and, while the look of the hotel changed a lot over time, it was still, and always will be, one of the most famous resorts in Las Vegas. Here's to you, Riviera!
