Nice article. It might however be pointed out that neither One Queens Ridge nor Marche Bacchus are in Summerlin. Nor is Boca Park.

Yeah it is kind of an area feature....the list of almost in Summerlin is long...

Marche Bacchus
Grape Street
Kona Grill
CP Chang
Claim Jumper
Flemings
Roys
Carabas
Kona Grill
Mimis
Hannah (now something new I don't remember)
Cracked Egg
Original Pancake House
Chicago
Steiners

Probably a message in all that...many roof tops - space too expensive.

There are some now. The Red Rock Casino spots. The superb Vintners Grill.

But mostly you go just outside of Summerlin for food.

What I don't understand is how some businesses...clearly NOT located in Summerlin proper...advertise as being "in Summerlin"

Very funny,but reading through I was waiting to see what kind of mistake there was going to be.Also they placed it on the map a little to far South in my opinion.But who really cares about that?

Yeah but many of those are within half a block to a block of being within Summerlin's borders.

It's a nice article for non-residents, except that I don't think the lake is only 48% of capacity. I don't even think it's down by 48%.

Snow pack in the Rockies is something like 130% of normal this year. We need a few more years like that to bring the lake back up to capacity. THINK SNOW!

Or maybe, THINK BACTERIA: Study shows bacteria are common in snow - Yahoo! News (broken link)

Actually the map is wrong too. Thought I might point some of this out to the Times but it is apparently not of interest. While normal times articles have a link to report errors travel does not.

So I would suspect they don't pay much attention to Travel Articles
