Did you know the Bellagio in SL is closing tonight? It's a really nice sim, and it's a shame that it's closing. If you've ever meant to get over there and check it out, now's the time!

That is a shame. It's a really gorgeous build.

I really liked the build, but I was disappointed that I never found anything there but shops.

What a horrible shame. I enjoyed that build, and the live music. Probably another example of the music eating up the profits and a classy venue biting the dust

It was a really beautiful build. I enjoyed walking around it, and the dance floor was lovely...but no one was ever around...

Was it a popular place when gambling was still legal? (I wasn't in SL at that time...)

I watched them build Bellagio from the very early stages. Always been a fan of the real Bellagio, and as a noob last year and during my formative wanderings, I naturally searched for what was familiar to me in rl. I found it one day before it was open for business and have popped back to check on it ever since.

I did dance at SL Bellagio while sat in my rl Bellagio room watching the fountains, and giggling to myself that I loved what was possible.

This IS sad.

What a shame.. found this build last week and it was amazing to say the least. I was hoping to get a dance here but I guess that won't happen now.

I kept intending to visit it, never did. Today I was a day late and a Linden short.

It's been replaced by Elorian Gardens. I didn't have time to explore the diving and the reef. The small & medium sized plants are some of the best non-sculptie plants I've seen other than Robin Sojourner's, which are wonderful, and some at Heart Gardens. They're not expensive, either. I didn't care much for the sculptie trees.

I tried to log in there this morning and got "moved to a nearby region". I figured the sim was gone. Maybe they were in the middle of a restart.

I too loved the build, but nearly everytime I wandered in there, the sim was virtually empty. Usually I am online at odd hours, so I figured it was just my timing. Sad though that it is being taken down.

I wonder if you're not referring to mine: Folks often confuse that given I sell the plants on her island, though she also has some pussy willows in one of her stores.

I thought they were Robin's. I'm sorry for not giving you the proper credit, Mari. They are the best small plants I've seen. (I didn't need any at the time, but made a note to go back for some future purchases.)

It appears Bellagio has blocked public access.

I have now rectified that omission from my garden. They're beautiful, Mari, and I'll be back for more.

What a shame. I just discovered it about 2 weeks ago. I love the one in Las Vegas and I thought they did a relatively good job of recreating it here, down to the Chihuley glass ceiling in the lobby. Yes, too bad it was only filled with shops (but, hey so is the real one lol, except for the casino). The garden was quite lovely but didn't smell as nice

I'll have to go back fast and take some pictures I guess unless access really is blocked.
