  Hard though it is to imagine, the Fremont Hotel was at fifteen stories the tallest building in Nevada when it was completed in 1956.

The still-visible concrete facade of its main hotel tower was seven as shockingly modern and marked a deliberate eschewal of downtown's previously universal Wild West style of architecture.

These days the Fremont , which has been owned by Sam Boyd of Sam's Town fame since 1985, is just another downtown gambling palace, not quite as fashionable as the Golden Nugget despite boasting the excellent Second Street Grill restaurant, but with its bright lights and purple baize tables jazzier than the rest of the pack.
