Early light.
First Vegas visits.
“I stayed at this hotel on a couple of my very first Vegas visits.”
Todd took this photograph of the southeast entrance from Las Vegas Boulevard in the early morning, around 2003.

A request for a rate.
A life together.
“I actually met my wife through the Boardwalk.”
Patrick was a Holiday Inn front desk manager in Belgium. She was the front desk manager at the Holiday Inn Boardwalk. Looking for an employee rate, he messaged her through Holidex, the hotel network he remembers as their intranet.
“Almost 30 years later and we are still married.”

September 17, 1997.
The window portrait and the view of New York-New York and Monte Carlo both carry this camera date. The date of the separate tower and carnival-frontage photograph remains unconfirmed.
Camera stamps read from the two room photographs. Patrick describes the room as a southeast corner room.
Thank you, Patrick, for the photographs and the story that came with them.
About these photographs & their dates
All four original images were shared by Patrick Lellieu with permission to display them with full credit. “Courtesy of” records his contribution without assuming he personally took every photograph. The room views are described in his email as southeast corner views. The person at the window is not named or identified here.
Both room photographs carry camera stamps reading 9 17 ’97. September 17, 1997 is the date printed by the camera, not an independently verified shutter date. The stamp on the window portrait runs vertically along the lower-left edge; the skyline photograph’s stamp is at the lower right.
The tower photograph’s date remains unconfirmed. Its scan filename contains 1992, but the completed Dreamland Tower shown here opened in 1996. The filename is not used as a photograph date.
The three scans are shown in full and have not been retouched or restored. The souvenir magnet is displayed as an AI-isolated cutout with its countertop background removed. Click the magnet to open the complete original photograph, converted from the supplied HEIC for browser viewing.
