The latest plans call for an 83,178-square-foot casino with a 211-room hotel tower that rises 216 feet. By 2009, the gaming company revisited plans for the resort, a scaled down version that never started development. Station Casinos bought the land from developer Jim Rhodes in 2000, and announced initial plans to open Durango Station in 2004. Durango plans to open as soon at 2023 with a hotel, casino floor, four restaurants, a food hall, and meeting and convention space all in the $400 million to $500 million range. In 2022, Station Casinos plans to break ground on a new resort at west of Durango Drive and south of the 215 Beltway, across from Ikea and next to the new UnCommons that plans to open in 2022.

The Silverton on Blue Diamond Road near the I-15 serves the area, but otherwise, those who want to play table games or make a night of dining and drinking at a local resort have to drive up to Red Rock Resort, Suncoast, or Rampart Casino to the north or even South Point to find a locals’ casino. Southwest Las Vegas has few standalone casinos.
