Seven storey garage set to fall in implosion later today.
O’Sheas is going out with a bang. Literally.
The 23-year-old Strip staple, famous for its beer pong and low-bet tables, closed its doors at noon today. Tomorrow morning, its 7-story parking garage will be imploded.
Caesars Entertainment shuttered the Irish-themed casino and is demolishing its garage to make way for the Linq project, a $500-million outdoor restaurant and entertainment district with an observation wheel centerpiece.
The 325,000-square-foot promenade will replace an alley between O’Sheas and the Flamingo, directly across the street from the company’s flagship, Caesars Palace.
Signs and barricades will be set up near the implosion site at 1 a.m. Tuesday. Surrounding streets will close to pedestrians and cars starting 2 a.m. Both Caesars and Clark County officials are discouraging people from trying to watch the implosion, citing safety concerns.
