The tallest structure in the city is theStrat tower, which rises 1,149 feet (350 m) just north of theLas Vegas Strip.[2] The tower is also the tallestobservation tower in the United States.[3] However, the Strat is not considered a building because the vast majority of the tower is not habitable. The tallest building in Las Vegas is theFontainebleau Las Vegas, which rises 735 feet (224 m) and wastopped out in November 2008. This building remained unfinished for several years due to thelate-2000s recession and opened in December 2023.

The first high-rise hotel andcasino resort to rise higher than 492 feet (150 m) was the 529-foot (161 m)New York-New York Hotel & Casino, completed in 1997.[5] Las Vegas entered into a skyscraper-building boom in the late 1990s that has continued to the present; of the city's 40 tallest skyscrapers, 39 were completed after 1997. As of 2025, the skyline of Las Vegas is ranked 66th in the world and 18th in the United States with 176 completed high-rises.[1]

TheUnited States Postal Service uses "Las Vegas, NV" as the official mailing address for the unincorporated places ofParadise,Winchester, andSpring Valley,[10] and as such the distinction between the city and the surrounding communities is often not apparent.
