Does Bellagio still have those statues of the Chinese lions at their porte cochere?
Yes.
Wynn has them as well... Can you say 'Chinese Good Luck Symbol'?
Are there two fountains, one on each side?
What kind of flooring did they put in?
The fountain looks good.
One side is done, the other will look exactly the same.
The flooring is the same as the rest of the porte cochere, no update.
how did it look before?
There was no fountain. It was just a rail.
I've been looking for a piece of information online that has eluded me.
Can you please tell me what is the size of the area the Bellagio port cochere covers (sq. feet, acres?)
I apologize in advance if you've covered this somewhere but I missed it.
Thanks,
-- David
Looking at Google's satellite image, the roof over the porte-cochere measures about 180 feet by 80 feet.
Imo, Steve Wynn hit a home run with Bellagio's porte cochere. Nothing in Vegas will ever be its equal in magnificence. I'm not overwhelmed with the "shell" fountains MGM put in.
