A few years ago I had found a listing of stars homes in Las Vegas. It was pretty entertaining to drive by them and see what had become of them. The list included the addresses that past entertainers like Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Checky Green, Sam Butera, Lucille Ball, etc. etc. either rented or owned for the times they were in town. It included the home Casino was filmed partly at as well. Now I can't find the info anywhere. If anyone remembers this or can share a link, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Back when Ruby Thomas, behind the Boulevard Mall, was one of the top ten schools in the U.S., my step son went there for first grade. He came home and told us that his new girlfriend lived right around the corner. Turned out she was the daughter of one of the famous Ink Spots. A lot of stars lived in that neighborhood, and I think some still do. Johnny Carson had bought one of the then brand new places just off DI Rd., and when he wasn't in town he rented it to other stars.

I Google mapped / street viewed a few if those streets. They're around a golf course on the near east side, and are a bit of a mid-century modern museum.

Not so much what I expected.

There are a lot more than that, and the stars are still alive. At least half of those on your list are dead, and have been for a long, long time.

I did not make the list and as I said before I do not recall where I came across it. One place to look at is Google Jack LaVine he designed and built many houses in the East side in the 60 and 70. Jack was doing tours of the area last year I do know these houses are being sold at a incredible price but they have the old LV charm about them and great landscaping. Here is another trivia thing Las Vegas National Country Club Golf Course use to be a PGA course and Tiger Woods won his first PGA Tournament there. I live in a Jack LaVine designed home (townhouse) in one of the Sunrise Villa communities. Another thing don't laugh at the old Gold color appliances in some places I had them when I moved in to my place and figured I would have to pay someone to haul them away. Well I got a note in my mail box from a person asking if I would sell them so I called and got a offer of $400.00 for the stove and dishwasher and you bet I took that the person buying it was Retro fitting a older 60's home and wanted the old type and style of appliances. The windfall was good for me so you never know I personally like the older homes they have character and are not a cookie cutter type in many areas of LV. I'll see if I can dig up some more info on the area and people who lived here.

I think we've run across a business opportunity. I thought there were maps, books, and tours of celebrity homes, but I can't find anything on the internet. Celine Dion lives at Lake Las Vegas and takes a helicopter to work at Caesars. I'd bet there are a couple of hundred, still living, national celebrities here.
