Abstract
In the past 8 years, five major structures on the Las Vegas Strip (The Dunes, Landmark, Hacienda, Sands, and Aladdin hotels) have been imploded. In this intersubjective ethnography, the author utilizes personal reflection to discuss the problematic intersection of biography, changes in the Las Vegas skyline, economic trends, and their connection to history. This intersubjective ethnography captures contradictions and paradoxes through interpretive accounts of the author's dynamic relationship to others and his environment.
