A new Harley-Davidson dealership has opened on the Strip. The $18 million, two-story, 55,000-square-foot "flagship" dealership is just north of the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign, on the spot where the Klondike casino used to stand. As the first such store on the Strip, it required special zoning because car dealerships typically aren’t allowed in the tourism corridor. Although the dealership sells and rents motorcycles, it’s being positioned more as an attraction than a car lot and features a shop with accessories, clothing and other logo merchandize, plus a snack-bar area offering free Wi-Fi and cellphone-charging for tourists who visit the welcome sign.
