Ultimate Sports Resort

According to numbers from developers and the Nevada Department of Taxation figures, North Las Vegas could virtually double its property assessment if the Ultimate Sports Resort goes up as proposed. The Ultimate facility may employ as many as 20,000 people and could require an additional 3-5,000 construction workers to build.

The Ultimate Sports Entertainment Inc. is putting together a financing package for a $4 billion project that will feature two sports arenas, an aquatic center, a driving range, an ice rink, batting cages, climbing walls, as well as over 16,000 parking spaces, 5,500 hotel rooms, 500 luxury condo and a 150,000 sq. ft. casino complete with a 50,000 sq. ft. glass enclosed non-smoking area. Upon completion the facility will be the largest facility of its kind in the world and will be the largest permanent sports product expo.

The project will be located a mile west of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on 116 acres north of I-15 and Las Vegas Beltway Intersection. With the amount of workers needed to complete the project locals wonder if they will see an increase of newly constructed homes.
