Jacobs Entertainment says the first phase of Reno's new Neon Line District is done, while the second phase, which includes eight historic neon signs and two sculptures, will begin within the next six months.
The new $1 billion mixed-use project stretches from downtown Reno’s West Street to Keystone Avenue, and from Interstate 80 South to West Second Street.
Four sculptures have been installed, with two additional pieces being added this fall.
Construction on the entirety of Reno’s Neon Line will be completed in the summer of 2021.
The additional sculptures to be added include:
Tara - Mechani by Dana Albany, a female figure made out of 80 percent recycled, mixed-metals
Polar - Bear by Don Kennell and Lisa Adler, a 35-foot polar bear composed of scrap car hoods
