J Resort’s Reno Neon Line
This urban mixed-use master-planned district is one of the largest redevelopment projects of its kind. The area encompasses 20 city blocks that will be known as Reno’s Neon Line District. Jacobs Entertainment has already invested more than $100 million in the acquisition of over 50 separate properties. The district stretches from downtown Reno’s West Street to Keystone Avenue, and from Interstate 80 South to West Second Street.
The centerpiece of the district is the creation of a $25 million, half-mile-long installation of public art along West Fourth Street, that will be known as J Resort’s Reno Neon Line. Currently, under construction, J Resort’s Reno Neon Line will host rotating artwork, with the initial artwork of the series to include sculptures formerly exhibited at Burning Man.

Its half-mile boardwalk offers stunning views of barges, bridges and Ohio’s storied “crooked river.”

Its Sugar Warehouse is home to other must-visit downtown destinations including Shooters Yacht Club, Funny Bone Comedy Club & Restaurant, Music Box and Great Lakes Watersports.
Already a stage for legendary artists, prominent festivals, and even professional tennis, the arrival of Globe Iron – a state-of-the-art music venue within a historic foundry – is set to amplify the magnetic draw of the Flats West Bank, which already captivates over 1.5 million visitors each year!
