“You have to imagine it as it was 50 years ago. Folks would roll down ol’ U.S. 95 in their two-toned, fishtailed Buicks, headed for Las Vegas. As they approached Downtown, they would be dazzled by a parade of neon: tumbling dice and roulette wheels, crescent moons and shooting stars, signage for blocks of motels and auto courts. Back before 1-800 or dot-com, the night’s accommodations were chosen upon arrival and a cascade of lights above a cool swimming pool or a sign advertising 'color T.V.’ and 'air-conditioning' promised luxury to weary travelers.
“Today, the lights are dark and the only vacancies are the lots where the Blue Angel and the Par-A-Dice Inn once welcomed visitors; same goes for Lucky Cuss Motel, whose legacy still sparkles up Las Vegas Boulevard traffic medians, thanks to the Neon Museum.
“Most of the motels are empty—broken neon tubes, weeds sprouting between faded parking lot lines. The Gables still advertises 'nice rooms' and curtains still decorate many of the boarded-up windows under its fairy-tale-peaked roofs; the shell of a payphone hangs on a red brick wall. The Alicia 1, 2 and 3 were once the Las Vegas Motel, Fremont Motel and Star View Motel, respectively. Now they all sit vacant beneath crookedly nailed particle board. The Travelers Motel, with its elaborate gateway, terracotta-tiled roofs and radio tower, seems like someone could whip it into shape and fill it with hipsters like they do in Austin or Joshua Tree, but it’s doubtful any well-shod feet will tread these grounds until they become a parking lot.
“Whether open or closed, the same sign hangs in the window: “No visitors allowed after 10 p.m.” Even motels still serving patrons seem to have one foot in the land of the dead—broken signs, drained pools, doors hanging open into darkened rooms. An anti-meth poster hangs near a notice advising patrons that there will be a “$5 storage fee for all items left in room” by the check-in at the Safari. Bedspreads fly on a line outside the Sky Ranch. Desert Moon Motel seems the most prosperous, but the neon advertising “free XXX movies” probably has more to do with that than the well-maintained cacti. These days, surviving on Fremont Street takes more than pretty lights …”
“The swimming pool is filled with rocks at one boarded-up motel. A short walk away, pigeons rest inside a motel sign whose missing letters make it all too easy to fly in...
“The fenced-off, decades-old properties are on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas, and all are owned by Zappos chief Tony Hsieh’s Downtown Project.
“Hsieh has pumped money and foot traffic into the city’s core, giving the area a sorely needed boost of commerce. But for the most part, his group isn’t doing anything with a cluster of closed motels on Fremont that sit blocks from the street’s nightlife scene.
“Formed in 2012, Downtown Project went on a real estate buying binge as part of its $350 million campaign to fund tech startups, restaurants and other ventures. With a $200 million allocation, real estate constituted the bulk of Hsieh’s plans, with his group assembling a portfolio of some 90 properties.
“Among other things, it operates apartment buildings and retail complex Downtown Container Park, and it partnered with Arizona real estate firm The Wolff Co. to develop Fremont9, a five-story apartment complex under construction next to Atomic Liquors.
“Hsieh’s group also bought motel properties farther east on Fremont, in an area that was a 'hotbed’ for drugs, prostitution and other crime, according to management. And it bought them not knowing what it would do them.
“It launched redevelopment efforts at the Fergusons. But otherwise, its Fremont Street motels are boarded-up and fenced-off, with a noticeable touch-up: Plywood sheets covering doors and windows were painted to look like cartoonish doors and windows.
“Downtown Project’s real estate portfolio manager, John Curran, spoke with the Las Vegas Review-Journal last month about the motels and other properties. The interview has been edited for length and clarity:
Do you have plans to develop other residential projects besides Fremont9?
We don’t have any specifics to share, but it’s certainly something we’ll be looking to do. Fremont9 is going to open by the end of the year. We’ve gotten an incredible outpouring of interest, more than 700 pre-leasing inquiries, and we’re still a few months away from opening.
It looks like the only motel with any notable project plans on file with the city, and the only one you’ve started any work on, is the Fergusons. What’s being built there?
Tony Hsieh lives in what we call the Airstream Village, which is condensing and moving to the back of Fergusons. A section of the motel has been demolished, and that will be a courtyard with Airstream trailers, a pool, a small stage area and lounge area. That’s basically Tony’s residence with a bunch of his friends and other downtowners. The next phase will be for the front of Fergusons. We hope to have two food and beverage anchor tenants here. There will be boutique retail, and the second floor would have office space. We would do major renovation work on the inside.
Do you have a next motel in mind for redevelopment?
The next block will be the Travelers. We’re not prepared to share anything about that; it’s still very fluid. Candidly, we bought all these blocks a few years ago with no idea of what we were going to do with them, but they were a hotbed for a lot of unsavory activity — crimes, drug use, prostitution, all those things. We knew someday that market conditions would allow for redevelopment, but in the meantime, us boarding them up, fencing them off, really gave us a buffer from a lot of that activity. It’s not great to look at a boarded-up motel, although we have stenciled designs on the doors, so at least aesthetically, it looks a little better than just plywood.
Why buy all these motels and sit on them?
People think, ‘Wow, $350 million, that money’s going to last forever.’ Ultimately, we’re restricted by bandwidth and resources. If we opened a major development on 14th and Fremont today, I don’t know if the market’s ready for that. It doesn’t get the foot traffic down there just yet. It’s not uncommon for developers to buy things and sit on them and wait until market conditions allow for development. We have a massive portfolio of real estate; a lot of them are ripe for future developments. We can’t do it all at once. We just opened a bar, Corduroy, for instance, and that was a major production. We’re focusing on Fremont9 and some other renovation projects. We’re never not busy.
For the motels, do you get calls from developers looking to do joint ventures? Like the project with Wolff, is that what you’re looking to do?
Definitely. We recognize two things: One, everybody’s bandwidth is limited, and we also figured out what our core competencies are. With Fremont9, we recognize that Wolff can take us further and better than we could on our own. We’ve talked to boutique hotel operators about renovating these motels and other properties. It’s definitely something we’re open to.
Have you considered knocking the motels down, scraping the sites and starting from scratch?
We have; we’ve even probably got hard demo numbers. But from an urban design perspective, I think it’s much more aesthetically appealing to look at a boarded-up motel that has some sort of history — perhaps some people find some charm and character in them. I think it is actually more interesting looking at a vacant, boarded-up motel rather than just pieces of dirt.
Do you get vandals or people climbing the fence?
That happens. It’s a never-ending battle. We’ve got around-the-clock security presence in the neighborhood. They usually report graffiti to us before the city gets it. We’re usually pretty quick to address it; we paint over any graffiti. But it’s always a moving target.
Following up on a recent post about apparently doomed midcentury motels on the east side of Las Vegas’s traditional downtown, the two articles above clarify the status of these properties: Top and middle photos taken August 23, 2018 by me. Bottom photo by Bizuayehu Tesfaye, accompanying the second section of text above including interview, from the September 2017 article Downtown Project’s closed Fremont Street motels remain stagnant by Eli Seagall in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, copied here in full to spare you the pop-ups, adblocker detection, and other BS on the Review-Journal website.

0707 Thu 燈光, Eli Hsieh
承諾這件事 要放多少在心上
不是自己給出去的 而是別人給的。
我會記得 前任說他要離開位置去外面看訊息 因為如果是處理工作app 臉上不可能露出那種微笑
我會記得 聽友說要跟我分享美日歌單的心得 要記下一本書給我 持續關注我寫的電影評價
自己給的承諾要守好 別人的 就聽聽吧。

Eli Hsieh 謝震廷 with a beautiful ballad and a powerful message!
最想到達的地方 The Fearless Place: Music/Lyrics by Eli Hsieh
"Hey, are you okay?"
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), among the three major diseases in the world in 2020, depression ranks second, second only to cardiovascular disease, and even more so than AIDS. By your side, your friends or relatives might need your help; or you actually are the one who needs to be helped, but too afraid to say it. As a patient of depression, Eli Hsieh hopes that more people can understand depression in a more positive and clear way. After deeply discuss the script with the director, and guide the emotions and feelings of the actors, Eli Hsieh hopes tell every listener who may be suffering or confused by this music video : If you feel tired, just take a rest. No matter what kind of difficulties you are facing, please remember "Unfear doesn't mean not afraid. It means that even when you feel afraid, you still go brave to the place you want to reach the most."

hi omg okay. I saw ur favorite albums post and I was wondering if you had a playlist on spotify of mandarin songs. my mandarin playlist is dry as hell (also my name is eli hsieh and i was so scared before I remembered he’s a singer)
hey! thanks for sending an ask. you have the same name as eli hsieh thats so cool! i didn’t have a list just for mandopop before but i just went through my favorited songs list and put them into a playlist here. it’s not an exhaustive list since i don’t keep a consistent record of all the songs i’ve listened to, and a lot of songs that i have listened to aren’t on spotify. oh and i think some of the songs might be in hokkien since im taiwanese so not all of the songs are in mandarin, but most of them are.
that said, i’m always !!! when it comes to mandopop bc theres not really a big tumblr following for that aside from the ip/produce101c/npc/rocket girls fandoms. no one cares when i ramble about other mandopop artists on my IP sideblog OTL so please! feel free to send me recs because i’m always looking for new music. i sometimes enjoy the Generic Mandopop Sound™ like i enjoy junk food, but im always looking for stuff that’s not just that Generic Sound (its partly why i love eli hsieh so much). i used to have a really hard time finding stuff that doesnt fall into that same kind of sound, but i’ve realized that its usually the not-as-popular artists that write works with different kinds of sounds, so it takes quite a bit of digging and sheer luck ;;
so yeah tldr i hope you find the playlist helpful, i always have more recs (esp for songs/artists that arent on spotify), and feel free so send me recs as well!
