UNLV Puts a 10.2-Acre Parcel Near the Las Vegas Strip Up for Sale at Nearly $40 Million
The vacant former Paradise Campus site is listed for about $39.9 million after earlier sale attempts fell through.
The University of Nevada, Las Vegas announced on Wednesday that it has listed a 10.2-acre parcel for roughly $39.9 million, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. The vacant lot sits at the southeast corner of Tropicana Avenue and University Center Drive, across from the Thomas & Mack Center, and was once home to a cluster of UNLV buildings known as the Paradise Campus.
The property lies about 1.5 miles east of the Strip. UNLV says it could suit mixed-use, hospitality or other projects. The listing follows earlier attempts to sell all or part of the site that did not close.
No buyer or development plan has been announced, and the university has not said what use it prefers.
