Right now, Downtown Las Vegas is going under reconstruction so the area is more updated towards the other areas in Las Vegas. Las Vegas is a growing town and expansion is necessary for growing population. That itself is the problem. We expand and expand without considering the older areas that are left to rot. I find that the reconstruction of Downtown will contribute to Las Vegas and its residents. If a park were to be made in the area, it would add more greenery and give the workeres in the area to have the break in and relax.
