Las Vegas Sands To Build New Arena Just Off The Strip

The public will soon be able to get their first look at a joint venture arena project of Las Vegas Sands and Madison Square Garden.

Officials with Sands Corp said the project will be built behind its Venetian and Palazzo properties on Sands Avenue between Koval Lane and Manhattan Street.

Construction on the 600,000-square-foot, 18,000-seat arena will begin this summer and has a completion timeline of 2020.

A public event to unveil the facility’s plan is scheduled to take place in either February or March.
