[vpFREE] xvp Joker's Wild area

I may have found out some Boyd Group insider information. An
environmentalist acquaintance told me Boyd would like to build a Hotel on the Joker's Wild
site but are holding back because of concern they could never get approval
because the ground under the property might be contaminated beyond repair by
waste dumping next door dating back to WW2 defense projects. The Landswell Corp
has plans to use the desert area between Jokers and Henderson Hyundai, 2200
acres, to build 1500 condos and some little parks. Early tests of the old
toxic ponds [brightly colored objects on the Google Earth photo] are showing
even radioactive substances. Myself, I never imagined Timet and all it's
predecessors were doing anything producing that kind of waste. Another problem Boyd
faces is they'd like to develop the vacant corner lot across the street from
the casino by putting a pedestrian bridge over Boulder Hwy. They are being
blocked by the CAT bus people due to CAT starting a MAX bus line up Boulder Hwy
to replace the 107 in 2009. I didn't quite understand how a bridge could
cause concern for a MAX bus but that's what the guy told me.

A side note. You'll notice on the Google photos two dark semi curves one
near Boulder Hwy and one up by the KDWN towers. An old Pittman resident told me
Elvis made the movie, "Speedway" on the auto race track that used to be there.
I bought the 68' film to see if any area mountains appeared in the
background. To my surprise the race sequences looked a lot like the Charlotte Motor
Speedway. In fact, exactly like Charlotte Motor Speedway. The rest of the movie
looked like inside a Warner Brothers Studio.

BTW, When I mention the old "Henderson Speedway" people confuse what I'm
saying with the dog/horse race track further south up the hill off Racetrack
Road. The speedway near Joker's Wild was built in 46'. The banked turns I
mentioned are still there but the asphalt have been mostly been removed from the
racing surface.
