He worked with the city to engineer the infrastructure of several communities long before they were developed. Roadways, utilities, and other amenities were designed so that residents wouldn't feel the pinch as the neighborhoods were developed and grew. The different communities all fit like a well thought out puzzle. Restrictions keep the housing and other architecture somewhat uniform. Certain color pallets must be used for exterior paints and other improvements often need approval by an association. Residents reap the benefits of a clean, stylish community. The west side of the Las Vegas valley boasts some of the best views. Panoramic vistas of the Strip to the east and Redrock and surrounding mountains are breathtaking from many homes. Building requirements by some of the associations preserve these views because they require building size restrictions. When the Redrock Casino was recently built the developers were instructed to keep it to a minimal number of stories an color it according to the association's approved pallets so the maximum number of great views of the valley could be preserved. West Las Vegas has access to some of the best features of the valley. Redrock canyon is only a few miles away providing scenic tours, horseback riding opportunities, biking, hiking, climbing, etc. Redrock Station Casino is at the mouth of the canyon. Swimming pools, parks and walkways are found throughout. Shopping centers, restaurants, and business parks are strategically located as well. Major roadways traverse the area for enhanced access to the rest of the valley. The beltway 215 connects with the I-15 on the north and south ends of the valley. Summerlin Pkwy cuts through the city connecting with I-95 providing access right to the heart of town. Other arterial streets provide access to any part of the city. Residents can choose homes of many styles to fit their tastes. Color and exterior appearances have there restrictions, builders have maximized the options in housing structures and layouts.
