| Description |
Silver Legacy Resort Casino is a hotel and casino located in Reno, Nevada, opened on July 28, 1995. It anchors a network of connected hotel-casinos in the downtown Reno core that included jointly owned properties Eldorado Hotel Casino and Circus Circus Reno. Silver Legacy is a 50/50 partnership between Eldorado Resorts and MGM Resorts International with MGM holding majority stake at 51%. Eldorado Resorts manages the property. In 1992. Don Carano, a Reno attorney and CEO/Chairman of the Eldorado Hotel Casino and Clyde Turner, CEO of Circus Circus Enterprises, joined together to design the Silver Legacy. At the time, Las Vegas was growing and overtaking Reno with larger and more lavish casino-hotels. Carano wanted to create a similar, competitive casino-resort. Its cost was projected at $230 Million. On July 22, 1993, the special use permit was approved to go ahead with the construction on land owned by Carano, two city blocks which would link the new resort with Eldorado and Circus Circus. Carano and Turner announced the official name of the resort on December 15, 1994. Following a citywide competition to name Reno's newest resort in more than a decade, the winning name "Silver Legacy" was chosen. In June 1995, the Nevada Gaming Commission approved the gaming permit for the resort. Carano's eldest son served as CEO of the property and later on, his next eldest son, Glenn, would join the executive team at the resort. Silver Legacy also made the big screen, first in "Kingpin" in 1996 starring Woody Harlson and Bill Murray showcasing the newest attractions of Reno, the Silver Legacy and the nearby National Bowling Stadium, too completed in 1995. Glenn Carano made a short appearance in the film and many scenes were shot inside the resort. Later, in 2002, Waking up in Reno starring Patrick Swayze and Natasha Richardson, was filmed inside Silver Legacy. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Legacy_Resort_Casino" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Legacy_Resort_Casino</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_...</a> |
