Union Park back in the picture

It's easy to count out the fingers of one hand when you think of how many times Union Park has been in and out of the news over the past decade. It's a 61-acre parcel of land the city of Las Vegas owns west of downtown.

Frustration was understandably setting in.

It seems to have made the difference that at least for now is pushing the master plan forward.
