Kreeger is confident in the success of Durango because the company will build on the experience it has had in the Southern Nevada resort industry. “So I think the types of things you saw with Red Rock you’re going to see at the next level with Durango.” “We bent a lot of rules in what was traditionally viewed as a gaming property, and I know that was met with great success,” Kreeger said in an interview Thursday. He expects the Durango demographic to be similar to Red Rock’s. Kreeger said Durango will use several design elements from the company’s signature Red Rock Resort in Summerlin, which he opened as general manager. Multiple bike lanes will access the property, which plans to provide ample bicycle parking.

The resort’s parking garage will have 40 electric vehicle charging stations.
