This week sees the opening of the brand new $2.4 Billion terminal at McCarran International Airport. Designed to bring in more visitors from oversees and from major US markets, supporters claim it could be a key cog in helping Las Vegas recover from the recession that has hit Southern Nevada harder than most.

Coupled with the recent news that the Vegas housing market and unemployment rates have both seen improvements, the new terminal may be the salve Vegas has been waiting for. The new terminal adds 14 more gates to the 96 currently in operation. See the Fox News story on the new terminal here.
