[edit] History
The main structure was originally built as a Gray, Reid & Wright Department Store which, at the time, was the only department store in the state of Nevada. The casino opened on October 18, 1978.
In 1981, the hotel's 22 story North Tower opened, followed by the 27 story SkyTower in 1986. In 1995, extensive renovations were completed, including the remodel of the mezzanine level where the restaurants are located, the midway, and a skybridge connecting to the Silver Legacy
