    Quoted from MrBally:

    Greta news for PHoF location #3.. It looks like Nevada Guv Sisolak will open the State up 100% late tonight. Casinos, with PHoF operating the same way, will only require masks but no occupancy restrictions.

    The Governor announced that he is opening Nevada at 100% on June 1st. Masks will still be required.

    Tim, staff, and moving crews are working their tails off moving pins/games/equipment and getting organized. Please don't judge the place by my pictures, or lack of them. This is only a small fraction of the pins already set up for play. It is a massive building! I look forward to playing some of the unique/unusual games in the upcoming weeks.

    Quoted from RobertWinter:

    I wonder if that's permanent spacing or covid spacing?

    I believe it’s Covid spacing. In some areas, every other pin is turned off. They have the newer pins spaced at 6 feet so they are all powered up. Pinball Circus is currently placed in the center of the building. It’s going to be AMAZING!

    Pinball Circus has been there since the first day. Unless they moved it, it’s halfway down the center isle, between the rows.

    No seating that I’m aware of. Mandalay Bay would be the closest for food, but Lazy Dog is south of the PHOF (Sunset and LV Blvd) and walkable. Wide menu and good drinks. If you’re into cars, Shelby American is in the same part of town (short ride in cab or Uber).

    What is the closest hotel?

    Mandalay Bay.

    Quoted from LyonsRonnie1:

    This doesn't pass the sniff test. The actual building likely isn't sitting directly on what they thought was the property line, it must be it's sitting on a right of way or a buffer a little too close to the property line.

    Errors in building ‘off property’ are extremely rare. I’ll believe the story when it comes from Tim.

    Quoted from RCA1:

    If there really is axproblem with the building location, another possibility is that the property survey and site plan are correct, and the building was mistakenly laid out in the wrong spot for construction.
    The construction staking may have been done by a surveyor, the contractor, or a sub-contractor-either an engineering or suveying firm.
    No one outside really seems to have enough information to have an informed opinion as to what might be going on.
    Hope it gets straightened out amicably.

    Without any supporting facts, I’m leaning towards the contractor misinterpreting the off-sets on the batter boards.

    When building schools, I would have the surveyor verify footings/forms prior to pour. If you have to move something, better before concrete has been placed.

    What bothers me the most is it doesn’t appear possible to move the building 8 feet to the north without encroaching into the adjacent service road (& easement). Did they make the building too big? Not likely…

    Will be interesting to hear the full story when all is said and done.

    Clark County Commissioners approved the construction of the new hotel between the PHOF and Harley Davidson shop. Construction expected to start 3rd quarter 2022.

    Quoted from miracleman:

    It will be on the right side of the PHOF, so they resolved the 8-foot of issue on that side?

    Getting their plans approved would have no bearing on any pending litigation. It’s doubtful they would have redesigned their drawing to compensate for someone else’s errors. Just my opinion based on years of experience.

    Depending on the time of day, that’s either a short Uber ride or an long interesting walk.

    Quoted from mrm_4:

    2000+ games in Las Vegas storage sheds???
    My god, flaked backglasses and melted plastics as farrrrrrrr as the eye can see.

    The ‘Tin Shed’ is a very safe place for pin storage. Prior to the PHOF, that’s where they were all located with a huge number set up for play.

    Tim used to host ‘Fun Nights’ there!

    Quoted from prl867:

    I had to take a medical LOA from volunteering there for a while so unfortunately I don’t have the exact current figures, but if there is some specific games you want to find out about, I can probably find out for you.

    Get well soon!
