Downtown Las Vegas, from Bonanza Road to Charleston Boulevard and I-15 to Maryland Parkway, is a commercial and hospitality quarter where grease interceptors, backflow, commercial water heating and pre-code sewer drive plumbing work.
Downtown Las Vegas runs from Bonanza Road south to Charleston Boulevard and from Interstate 15 east to Maryland Parkway, taking in the Fremont Street Experience, the Fremont East Entertainment District, Symphony Park and the Las Vegas Medical District. It is a commercial and hospitality market first. Casinos and hotels, restaurants and bars, offices, small retail and a growing number of residential conversions share some of the oldest commercial building stock in the valley. Cast iron and clay drain lines, undersized laterals and decades of alterations layered on top of each other are routine, and a sewer connection that met code when it went in often does not today.
