Ed Roski, the owner of Las Vegas’ Silverton Casino Hotel, has received approval from Clark County officials to build an apartment complex adjacent to the resort, which is located on Blue Diamond Road near Interstate 15.
According to public records, the complex will be five stories tall and will feature a total of 290 units, ranging in size from 600 square feet to over 1300 square feet. The complex will include amenities such as a golf simulator, a bocce ball court and an outdoor courtyard space.
Craig Cavileer, CEO of the Silverton, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the company does “not have any comment on the project.”
The move to build housing near resorts is somewhat of a growing trend in the Las Vegas area—last year, the Calida Group opened an upscale rental building adjacent to the Palms casino, and Ovation Development is currently working to build a seniors-only complex near Sunset Station in Henderson.
Roski, who also serves as chairman of Majestic Realty Co. in Southern California, has expanded the Silverton site multiple times over the past five-plus years.
In 2016, the state’s first Cracker Barrel restaurant was opened on land Roski owns next to the resort. Around that same time, an 18-story timeshare complex, which is branded under the Silverton name, was also opened on Roski-owned land.
Construction is also ongoing for the Silverton Village complex, a nearby development which features a Hyatt Place hotel and various retail shops and restaurants.
At the Silverton itself, its hotel and pool are currently undergoing renovations that are expected to be completed sometime in the first quarter of next year.
