Should Las Vegans Embrace Summerlin's Growth?
Description
Last week, the Las Vegas planning commission approved two new neighborhoods in the Summerlin area that will include hundreds of homes. While some might be happy to hear that the new neighborhoods aren’t near Red Rock, any expansion in Las Vegas is met with apprehension. As the infamous suburb grows, we are revisiting a conversation co-host Sarah Lohman had with historian Geoff Schumacher, vice president of exhibits and programs at The Mob Museum, and City Cast Las Vegas executive producer Sonja Cho Swanson, our in-house Summerlin resident. They break down the unusual origin of the neighborhood, its complicated reputation, and share their favorite spots around Summerlin.
