The Marble Manor public housing complex in Las Vegas, originally built in the early 1950s, is set to be demolished and redeveloped. The complex was once considered modern, featuring updated kitchens, bathrooms, and climate control systems. Over time, the buildings have aged and no longer meet current housing standards.
The redevelopment plan aims to replace the outdated structures with new housing that better serves the needs of residents. Local officials emphasize the importance of improving living conditions and providing safer, more comfortable homes.
**Why this matters**
Marble Manor has been a key part of Las Vegas’s public housing for decades, but its aging infrastructure has limited its ability to provide adequate housing. Redeveloping the site is intended to address long-standing issues and improve quality of life for residents, reflecting broader efforts to modernize public housing across the city.
