Strip Photo Tour

The Strip, an All-American Road, is part of Las Vegas Boulevard, once referred to as Highway 91 or the Los Angeles Highway. The north end of the Strip is Stratosphere. If Mandalay Bay is considered the south end, the Strip is 4 miles long. If the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign is considered the south end, the Strip is 4.7 miles long. The Strip got its name from Guy McAfee, a former Los Angeles policeman who was the owner of the Pair-O-Dice club, located on the current site of former Frontier and future Echelon. He began referring to this stretch of Highway 91 as the Strip, because it reminded him of the Los Angeles Sunset strip between Hollywood and Beverly Hills. The name stuck.
