The 65-by-65-foot screen.

In May of 2023, Amy and I could watch from our front door at Renova Flats, as the Sands Regency casino hotel in downtown Reno became the brand-new J Resort. 

In May, I watched the men who climbed up ladders to put up the massive 65-by-65-foot screen.

And, in June, I could see the finished product. 

Work by digital artists from the United States, Europe and Asia is now featured on the screen.

The J Resort held a grand opening June 9th, 2023, as the downtown Reno hotel-casino completed major renovations. The rebranded former Sands Regency hotel-casino had been undergoing a multi-year renovation after Jacobs Entertainment bought it in 2017. 

The $300 million renovation was part of Jacob Entertainment’s efforts to revitalize downtown Reno’s west corridor as part of the Reno Neon Line District where Amy and I are happy to live at Renova Flats, across the street from the J Resort.
