Fremont Street at night. Visible on the left side of the street are neon signs for the Golden Nugget Gambling Hall, Nugget Saloon, Frontier Club, The White Spot Cafe, Pioneer Club, The Monte Carlo Club, The Union Pacific sign (in the background, right of center). Visible on the right side of the street are neon signs for the Vegas Club, Hotel Apache, and the Eldorado Club.

In 1984, the neon was removed from the building and the spa tower was built, along with the showroom. The third tower was opened in 1989. The hotel now has 2,419 rooms and suites. The casino's large hotel sign at its entrance off Fremont and Casino Center was removed in 1984 when the casino underwent renovations. The old sign presently sits at the YESCO (Young Electric Sign Company) sign yard.
