Change is underway: Midtown Las Vegas broke ground Friday, setting a bold new tone for the Arts District.
City leaders, project partners, Midtown Development Group founder, and future residents turned out for the first official look at what is coming next. Mayor Shelley Berkley, Councilwoman Olivia Díaz, and Marriott International’s Richard Veilleux took the mic to lay it out: Midtown is not here to blend in. It is here to build on the soul of the Arts District and raise the bar for what comes next.
The event featured hard hats, shovels, tours of the condo model, and a post-ceremony gathering at The Pepper Club — a reminder that Midtown is as much about connection as it is about construction.
This groundbreaking was not just a photo op. It was a statement. A love letter to the makers, dreamers, and doers who shape a Las Vegas you will not find on a postcard.
Construction is underway. The future is coming fast. Follow along as Midtown carves its place into the story of the Arts District.
