Fremont East District in Downtown Las Vegas

In 2006 the city of Las Vegas revealed plans to redevelop Fremont Street east of the Fremont Street Experience as an entertainment district. The Fremont East District offers an eclectic mixture of bars, clubs and cafes along Fremont Street from Las Vegas Boulevard to Eighth Street. The district continues one block north of Fremont Street to Ogden Avenue and one block south to Carson Avenue. In addition, beginning in February 2010, the city began waiving the $20,000 tavern-limited license origination fee for businesses locating within the district.

In the Fremont East District, you’ll be keeping good company with popular downtown venues such as Azul Tequila, The Beat Coffeehouse, Insert Coins, Beauty Bar, Downtown Cocktail Room, The Griffin, Maharaja Hookah Café, the Vanguard Lounge and more in the planning and construction stages. . Fremont East is one of the only areas which is non gaming, except for the El Cortez Hotel and Casino.

Daily Neon: Arby’s Neon sign on Decatur Blvd. now gone

Arby's Classic Neon Hat sign

Arby’s Classic Neon Hat sign was found on Decatur Blvd Near Meadows Lane

Another classic neon sign has been removed in Las Vegas and it’s not the flashy ones found on the Strip or on downtown. The old Arby’s location (store #592) on Decatur Blvd. near Meadows Lane has been shuttered and the classic ten-gallon neon hat sign now removed, but I caught a photo before it was removed.
