What was a nondescript, if large, mall has now been revamped with a yowsa exterior much more fitting Las Vegas. It's capped by a giant . . . well . . . they call it a "Cloud" but we call it "that weird thingy that looks like a spaceport for UFOs, what in the heck were they thinking?" Inside, you will find the city's first Nordstrom, a Bloomingdale's, Saks Fifth Avenue, a Macy's and eventually a Lord & Taylor. Construction on the $300 million expansion should be completed in late 2003. The mall presently comprises more than 130 shops, restaurants, and services. And the Cloud/Alien Spaceport Thingy will have giant LED screens, music, and other distractions -- again, much more fitting for Vegas, where even the malls have to light up. Valet parking is available, and you can even arrange to have your car hand-washed while you shop. The Fashion Show is open Monday through Friday from 10am to 9pm, Saturday from 10am to 7pm, and Sunday from noon until 6pm.
