property, including gambling licenses. By April 1987, Threinen's purchase contract with Westworld Inc. had defaulted and the company then began negotiations with MarCor Development, a development firm based in Las Vegas that agreed to purchase the entire 125-acre property. MarCor had unfinalized plans to develop the 125 acres into a multi-use tourist and residential project. MarCor's purchase of the property was complete in September 1987; the debt issue had been resolved by Westworld Inc. MarCor and Boyd Group, among other entities, then formed Sunset Partners to develop a hotel-casino project on the 125-acre property. The partnership hoped to begin construction in early 1988, with an opening by the end of the year. Tentative plans would include a 200-room hotel, a 200-space RV park, and a small theme park. The overall project would cost $20 million to $30 million, and would include the removal of the fort. The rides would also be removed, and other family attractions such as a bowling alley and a picnic area would be added. MarCor remained undecided on whether to keep the Old Vegas name. Groundbreaking for the new resort was delayed for various reasons, including the opening of several new resorts in the Las Vegas Valley. Focus 2000, formerly MarCor Development, announced plans in July 1992 to refurbish and reopen Old Vegas, including the fort and its restaurant and casino. Focus 2000 was a spinoff of MarCor Resorts, which owned the Rio hotel-casino in the Las Vegas Valley. Following the planned reopening, Focus 2000 intended to build up to three hotel-casino projects afterward to accompany Old Vegas. Also planned were three truck and RV centers and a possible factory outlet mall. Over the next year, Focus 2000 worked on the project plan with nearby residents who were concerned about its impact on their neighborhood. In June 1993, Focus 2000 proposed a master plan for the Old Vegas site consisting of three hotel-casinos and an RV park. Work on the new project was not expected to start until early 1995, approximately one year after the scheduled completion of a nearby road project to reroute U.S. Route 95. Marnell Corrao Associates was chosen by Focus 2000 as the general contractor for the hotel-casino complex. Zoning changes for the site were approved in September 1993. The project would include a 522-space RV park and three hotels with a total of 4,000 rooms, as well as a convenience store
