Impressions of Las Vegas Nevada: An Objective and Subjective Overview
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the many faces of Las Vegas. When one considers Las Vegas the first thought that comes to mind is almost inevitably that of bright lights and fast lifestyles. It is, equally, however, a city of great decadence and bitter despair. It is a city of great wealth and social depravity, the contrast between the two often resulting in a preponderance of activities which elsewhere are illegal. The author of this paper considers the many issues underlying the glamour of Las Vegas. From her water supply, to her insatiable need for electricity, to her legislative environment, Las Vegas is indeed a city of many contrasts. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Increasing Business-Related Tourism in Philadelphia
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper assessing factors that tourism promoters in Philadelphia should consider in attempting to increase business-related tourism in that city. The paper discusses the economic benefits of tourism and the need for the local community to be involved in the effort, and presents Las Vegas and Hickory, North Carolina as examples of the benefits of business-related tourism. Ensuring a clean, safe environment is the first step toward attracting greater numbers of business travelers. City planners need to ensure that downtown areas are filled with small service businesses rather than empty storefronts. With the city taking the lead, local hotels may begin forming alliances such as those between otherwise unaffiliated hotels in Las Vegas. The adage, "Success breeds success" survives because of the truth contained within it. Bibliography lists 14 sources.
