Readers' Pick NEW YORK-NEW YORK

  • 3790 Las Vegas Blvd. South
         A repeat victory with no challengers on the horizon, judging from the familiar Y-shapes of the upcoming Bellagio and Mandalay Bay. New York-New York also was named Best Special Project last summer in the Golden Nugget (no relation to the hotel) competition, the country's oldest and largest architectural and design awards. The Luxor ran a distant second, with only about a third of the front-runner's votes. Either the novelty has faded or those new hotel towers diminish the view of the pyramid.

    Our Pick NEW YORK-NEW YORK

  •      We may be boring by repeating ourselves from last year, but this hotel isn't. We could lecture you with architectural lingo about this being a "duck" -- a hotel as sculpture -- vs. the "decorated shed" housing that most gambling joints adopt. Suffice it to say, we always find something new to look at, inside and out.
