Holy Cow Casino Demolition - Las Vegas Strip
The old Holy Cow Casino and Brewery in Las Vegas has been demolished. The top photo is the last photo I took of the vacant building on the northeast corner of Las Vegas Blvd and Sahara; it's the black building in the distance.
A little while after the Holy Cow closed in 2002, it served as a sales office for Ivana. That was when the building was painted black with pink.
Ivana Trump had a billboard near the Stardust sports book side, and was going to build a 70 something story building on that tiny parcel. It didn't happen.
That building, with it's black and pink, was the last remaining visible reminder of the Ivana project.
Before it was the Holy Cow Casino and Brewery, it was Foxy's Firehouse Casino. It looked it's best during that phase. I do not have any photos of it from then, but have seen photos online. At that time the building was red and orange, and looked okay for that type of place.
The address of the now demolished building is 2423 Las Vegas Blvd South.
