I'm a tech recruiter that lived in Vegas for 6 months in 2012. Downtown was a bizarre, tiny pocket of tech startup angst that was struggling to establish an identity. There was ONE main coffee shop where seemingly everyone was pitching investors, ONE main apartment building that housed all of the Zappos frat boy engineers, and ONE main hipster bar appealing to this element (not including the little hip spot where you could "always" spot Tony grabbing a drink). There was this feeling of limitless potential, but little actual practical work happening to sustain downtown for the long-term. Interesting to hear the latest there, but figured I would add my two cents too!
