Coolest Thing I Never Saw in Vegas

One of my favorite Downtown casino is Main Street Station. I love the elegant Victorian theme and high ceilings, which seem to help with dissipating the smoke from cigarettes. It offers a pretty decent buffet and microbrewery, which I have yet to try, but will on my next visit.

Main Street Station incorporates a number of artifacts from all of the world, including a vault from a European bank and a chandelier from from Coca Cola.

One of the coolest one is a piece of the Berlin Wall. Yes, the Berlin Wall. Unfortunately, I've never seen it with my own eyes because it's installed in the men's bathroom, located next to the buffet. Specifically, it's installed behind the men's urinals. How fitting.

So I sent the Hubz to capture all the pics. Of course, he needed to wait for everyone to finish their business first.

Also, there's a plexiglass that covers the wall itself, so you can't actually, you know, on it.

  1. I've stayed at Main Street many times, mostly with Vacations Hawaii. And I've personally said hello and paid my respects to the Berlin Wall as well. The Brewery makes good beer and one of the best steaks I've ever had was at the Brewery. Unfortunately, so was one of the worst prime rib dinners. Oh well, win some, lose some. My only real problem with Main Street is it's close to the rainroad tracks, and when the trains chuggle by early in the morning, they blow their whistle. Yikes!

    1. Ooh! Gonna have to try the steak! I heard the sushi is good too! I know what you mean about the trains, but they never really kept me awake at night.
