The Dunes is a property whose affinity for, I cannot explain. I can easily explain some of the things I like about it, things that I think are cool and amenities I would have liked to enjoy; but that doesn’t explain why. But let me ask you this, why are you faithful to your spouse? Why do you love them? I know you can explain to me what you find attractive about them, your favorite features, their personality but that doesn’t explain why. We have no control over what we find attractive, we just do. Perhaps that explains why I like the Dunes so much.While it may have never be the financial success it aspired to be, the Dunes can be counted among the Sands and the Stardust as some of the most iconic in Las Vegas history. All 3 evolved with the city, a journey that caused them to end up looking dramatically different than the original concept they opened with. It's also fair to say that their loss was all for the greater good, not only for the city but for their legend. The way the untimely deaths of people like Kirk Cobain cause them to be idyllically remembered so is true about iconic Vegas properties. Even if at the end they are usually only shadows of the properties they were in their prime, their legacy is their ability to be remembered in whatever incarnation we choose to remember them in, the very definition of the word timeless.
