Welcome to the official Landmark Hotel Memorial! The Landmark opened on July 1st, 1969, after eight years of stop-and-go construction and significant setbacks. A possible influence for the cartoon Jetson’s apartment, the Landmark was meant to be a revolutionary wonder for Las Vegas, Nevada. Instead, many regarded it as an eyesore and was plagued by financial trouble for most of its life. At one point, it was owned by Howard Hughes and was host to many celebrities. This site is a tribute to this architectural marvel and its place in Las Vegas history.
