In this May 20, 1957 file photo, Actress Rhonda Fleming blossoms out as a singer and dancer in the first night club appearance of her career at the New Tropicana hotel in Las Vegas. When the Tropicana Las Vegas opened in 1957, Nevada's lieutenant governor at the time turned the key to open the door on what would become a Sin City landmark for more than six decades. Then he threw away the key. “This was to signify that the Tropicana would always stay open,” said historian Michael Green. Six decades later, the storied hotel-casino that once had ties to the mob and had been nicknamed the “Tiffany of the Strip,” is set to shut its doors for good to make room for a $1.5 billion Major League Baseball stadium.
