John S. Park neighborhood
Click here for photos and information on several distinctive neighborhoods in the central area.
If you want to really live "in" Las Vegas then central Las Vegas is the place for you. There are a wide range of housing options here. On and around 6th street (see below) are some great old (by Vegas standards circa 1950's) homes. Another area of nicer homes are those in the Las Vegas Country Club. There are several smaller gated communities in this area. Homes in this area can be very modestly priced, but can range well into the millions. Paradise Palms is another area of classic "vegas style" homes, many with golf course frontage. properties. What homeowners in this area have in common is that they love being close to, for lack of a better word, the "action". Think about it, here you can live literally within walking distance from what many people travel thousands of miles to experience. They also enjoy homes that, to them, reflect more character than what is currently being built.
This central area has, over the last few years, turned into a hot bed of commercial and residential activity. The World Market Center, a wholesale furniture mart, has opened with two buildings presently and over 3,000,000 sq. ft. of floor space. Union Park, to be built on 61 acres west of Fremont is becoming a reality with the Lou Duvo Brain Institute, Smith Center for the performing arts and the World Jewelry Mart having either broken ground or in the advanced planning stages. Substantial commercial and residential development is also planned for Union Park. Soho Towers, a residential high-rise, is now completed. Three additional high-rise developments in the central downtown area are in some stage on construction. These would include Newport Lofts, Juhl and Streamline Towers. Upscale restaurants, shops and bars are slowing moving into this area.
I have been slow to convince, with respect to the resurgence of the downtown area, but I am now a believer.
