Fremont Street Experience
Images of neon signs seen on Fremont Street East and the Fremont Street Experience, Las Vegas, Nevada.
Some interesting facts about some of these signs:
Red stiletto and showgirl, located
in the median on a three block stretch between 8th street and Las
Vegas Blvd, are two of the four original aluminum and neon
sculptures designed by Selbert Perkins Design and installed by Fluoresco
Lighting and Signs. They are 40-45 feet tall, with distinct features, such as
the red stiletto rotating 360 degrees, and part of the streetscape project to
revitalize East Fremont Street in 2007. They have a retro look and feel and are
a draw for Fremont Street East
Aladdin’s Lamp Neon Sign
designed by Raymond Larsen for the Aladdin Hotel then located at 3667 Las
Vegas Blvd South. It is owned by the
Young Electric Sign Co. who built it in 1966. Aladdin’s Lamp was installed on
July 8,1997 as part of the Neon Museum. A Historical Marker about its origins is displayed next to it.
Chief Hotel Court Neon Sign installed sometime around 1940 for the hotel at 1201 E. Fremont Street. It is now owned by the Tiberti Family who have
restored and loaned it to the Neon Museum. The sign was installed on July 8,
1997 as part of the Neon Museum and has a Historical Marker beside it with
details about the sign’s past.
