About this audio guide
This guide to Resorts World Las Vegas starts at 2:34 on a March morning in 2007, on the ground where the Stardust came down. It goes back to the neon-lit hotel that opened in 1958, to Frank Rosenthal and his sports book, and to the investigators who kept finding money going missing. Then it follows the lot through a stalled build and a new owner from Malaysia. Best heard on the sidewalk out front, facing the tower.
