much appreciated. The suggested donation $100 per person or $150 per
couple
No one will be turned away due to financial hardship, so please come if
you are interested and donate what you can. If you can make it, please

address is paypal@atomicage.org

Thank you to everyone who is helping to make this event possible,
including, but not limited to Craig Lavalley Design Within Reach, the

47-Story High-Rise on Sahara turned down

The crew at VeryVintageVegas.com is reporting that the Planning Commission turned down a proposal by a developer to turn the corner of 6th and Sahara into a mixed-use 47-story highrise tower.

Kudos to Jack LeVine and all those who came out in support of the neighborhood last night.  Kudos also to Steve Evans, of the Planning Commission, for realizing that mixed-use high-rise towers are not good ideas for every neighborhood.
