A lot has changed in recent years and it no longer deserves that stigma. In a little unassuming store front on Broadway, you’ll find one of the more unique spots on Orange County. In fact, it was voted best bar in all of Orange County two years in a row. The Crosby is a restaurant, bar, bookstore started by 3 friends who all had the same vision.

The Crosby recently celebrated their 2 year anniversary on April 1st. To celebrate they had DJ Rhettmatic of the World Famous Beat Junkies and PlannB, resident DJ of LA’s Soul Sessions spin some classic, definitive hip hop. Here are some shots from that night.

Crystals, the 500,000-square-foot luxury retail and entertainment district at CityCenter, opens today.

“We wanted to move the epicenter in the Western United States of these large, luxury retailers from Los Angeles to Las Vegas,” MGM Mirage Retail President Frank Visconti explained. “Almost every one of the tenants is larger here than it is in L.A. We never wavered from that.” Taking it from LA? Ouch.

This will be the largest Louis Vuitton in North America. At night, the exterior facade will come alive with a show made by over 4,000 LEDs. It reminds me of the extravagant retail stores in Ginza Tokyo.
