Las Vegas: The Strip --middle section

The topographic map shows The Strip from about Rivera Blvd. to Flamingo Rd., which includes most of the northern and middle sections of The Strip. The Middle Strip starts south of Desert Inn Rd, which runs along the northern edge of the golf course on the map, to Flamingo Ave. More incredible statistics on gambling in Las Vegas that you could not image!
