With Glenn Miller’s 1939 instrumental classic “Moonlight Serenade” playing in the background, Friday’s media tour at the Thomas & Mack Center could’ve had a throwback feel as officials unveiled the new Strip View Pavilion.
But as the case with most Las Vegas buildings, the emphasis was very much on the future rather than the past.
The Strip View Pavilion is exactly as the name indicates, the valley’s skyline opening up upon entrance into the 9,200-square foot room, with all the modern enhancements that would be expected.
It’s a room that can be expanded or condensed, houses more than 40 inside and outside speakers, a 9-by-16-foot video screen that can raised or lowered, 16 TVs and a 2,500-square foot patio.
