The name might be up in the air, but construction barrels along at the former Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall in the heart of the the Las Vegas Strip.<\/p>\n

\"Bill's<\/a>
Bill’s ever-expanding backside. (Hint: Too many Las Vegas buffets.)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Recent changes at Bill’s have been dramatic, including a new protrusion that will serve as the hotel’s porte-cochère.<\/p>\n

The newly-renovated hotel was supposed to open as Gansevoort, but that went south. Read more about the clustery goodness<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
The Bill’s waterslide is getting even more awesome.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When it comes to a possible new name, most think the new hotel will end up being called Drai’s.<\/p>\n

We sort of like the idea of a mash-up of Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall, Barbary Coast (what it was called before Bill’s) and the now-tanked Gansevoort: Barbarybillsevoort. Hey, when it comes to naming Las Vegas hotels, stranger things have happened<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Not<\/a>
On second thought.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Perhaps most striking about the construction is the dramatic widening of the hotel’s footprint. Bill’s is growing both upward and overward, if “overward” is, in fact, a real word.<\/p>\n

\"Crazy<\/a>
Crazy times. Is that a helicopter landing pad up there?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The addition to the top of the building extends over the edge of Bill’s toward Bally’s.<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/a>
It’s likely to be part of the hotel’s new rooftop nightclub experience thingy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The new Giada’s, the first restaurant venture from Food Network hottie Giada De Laurentiis, is coming along nicely.<\/p>\n

\"They'll<\/a>
They’ll probably spruce up the place before it opens.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The changes are coming fast and furious at the former Bill’s, and we look forward to seeing what’s next. Enjoy more photos in our exclusive gallery.<\/p>\n
