Harrah’s Casino Hotel Las Vegas Gaming Token $1 One Dollar Coin Slots Riverboat

Description: Harrah’s Casino Hotel Las Vegas Gaming Token $1 One Dollar Coin Slots Riverboat . The resort was built on property once occupied by the Tumbleweed motel, built in 1946; and the Pyramids motel, built in 1952. The Pyramids, a 20-unit motel, was the first project for Las Vegas real estate developer Irwin Molasky. The Tumbleweed would later become the Sand Dunes,and was destroyed in a 1968 fire. Holiday Inn and Holiday Casino (1973–1992) In March 1969, plans were announced for a riverboat-themed casino to be built on the property. It would be developed by Holiday Queen Land Corporation, and the project would include a hotel in partnership with Holiday Inn. The casino would be owned by Holiday Queen, while Holiday Inn would operate the hotel under its eponymous brand. Groundbreaking took place on April 2, 1970. The 520-room hotel opened on February 1, 1972, as the Holiday Inn Center Strip, named for its location at the center of the Las Vegas Strip. It consisted of a 14-story tower.The adjacent Pyramids motel was purchased later that year for $750,000, and was demolished to provide additional parking space. During construction, the gaming portion was known as the River Queen Casino. It opened as the Holiday Casino on July 2, 1973. It included 320 slot machines and 20 table games, and catered to a middle-class clientele. The casino's primary investors included Shelby Williams and Norman Jenson. Williams served as the casino's president and board chairman. He and his wife Claudine Williams had previously owned the Silver Slipper casino in the 1960s. Shelby Williams died in 1977, at the age of 66, after a lengthy illness. Claudine Williams took over operations, a rarity in the Nevada gaming industry, which generally consisted of men. In 1979, Holiday Inn bought a 40 percent share of the casino's parent company, Riverboat, Inc. Claudine Williams retained the other 60 percent. Harrah's Las Vegas is a hotel and casino centrally located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. It is owned by Vici Properties and operated by Caesars Entertainment. The property originally opened as a joint venture with Holiday Inn. Construction began in April 1970, and the hotel portion opened on February 1, 1972, as the Holiday Inn Center Strip. The casino portion, known as the Holiday Casino, opened on July 2, 1973. Shelby Williams was among the casino's investors. After his death in 1977, his wife Claudine Williams took over operations. Holiday Inn purchased an interest in the casino operation in 1979, and bought out Williams entirely in 1983, although she would remain as chairwoman.
