Those hoping to catch a glimpse of the Tropicana implosion next week will have limited views from nearby sites thanks to road and sidewalk closures.
A safety boundary zone will be set up near the Rat Pack-Era resort, as nearly 2,100 pounds of explosives will bring down the two hotel towers in 22 seconds. A seven-minute drone and fireworks show is scheduled for 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, leading up to the implosion.
Roads around the Tropicana will be shut down at 11 p.m. Tuesday, with the general boundaries being between Park Avenue to the north and Mandalay Bay Road to the south, and Koval Lane to the east and Frank Sinatra Drive to the west, according to Clark County. Reno Avenue and from Frank Sinatra to Koval will also be closed. All closure will be in place by 12:30 a.m. Wednesday.
