"Right now in Vegas, six thousand more rooms just came on line with the opening of City Center… Two more resorts are soon to open up. Planet Hollywood has just added about twelve hundred more rooms to the capacity of Vegas…… and we just probably won’t see any more building of this type, of the high end, high luxury for many, many more years."

- Marybel Batjer, VP of Public Policy and Communications for Harrah's Entertainment, asked about the continual upscaling of Las Vegas hotel-casino properties over the past two decades, and the upward pressure on revenue needed to cover costs.
