MGM Resorts Sells Land That Was Site of Las Vegas Massacre

TL;DR

The 15-acre Village property was purchased by the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation based in central North Dakota.Concertgoers at the Route 91 Harvest Festival gathered there on Oct. 1, 2017, when a gunman opened fire from his hotel room above.Last August, MGM Resorts donated two acres on the northeast corner of the property for the permanent memorial after a survey conducted by Clark County found that a majority of respondents wanted the tribute built at the site of the shooting.Planning for the memorial has been underway since late 2019, but it could be years before the final tribute is unveiled.Representatives for the Tribes did not immediately return a message from The Associated Press seeking comment."
