Step back into the quirky, unforgettable world of Vintage Las Vegas with this deep-dive bio of the legendary Glass Pool Inn, one of the most iconic and unusual motels ever to grace the Las Vegas Strip. Originally opened in 1952 as the Mirage Motel at 4613 South Las Vegas Boulevard, this classic roadside property became a true Las Vegas landmark in 1955 with the addition of its famous above-ground, glass-walled swimming pool.

Featuring large porthole-style windows that allowed pedestrians and motorists to watch swimmers underwater, the Glass Pool Inn perfectly embodied the playful, attention-grabbing spirit of old Vegas. Long before megaresorts transformed the Strip, this independent motel mastered the art of roadside spectacle and became a favorite among Las Vegas visitors, photographers, filmmakers, and television producers.

In this episode, we explore the history of the Mirage Motel and its transformation into the Glass Pool Inn in 1988 after Steve Wynn acquired the Mirage name. We also dive into the property's appearances in iconic films including Casino and Leaving Las Vegas, where its famous pool became part of Las Vegas movie history.

Perfect for Las Vegas history buffs, vintage Vegas fans, retro motel enthusiasts, and lovers of classic Strip history, this video celebrates one of the most distinctive landmarks of old Las Vegas.
