Sands Hotel and Casino in the early 1960s Wayne McAllister designed the original $5.5 million Sands Hotel, an exotic-looking terracotta red-painted modern hotel with a prominent porte cochere at the front, surrounded by a zig-zag wall ornamented with tiled planters. The hotel is arguably most associated with its high sign, made iconic with photographs of the Rat Pack standing underneath it. The name "Sands", written in elegant italics, featured a high letter "S", and the name was sprawled across an egg crate grill, cantilevered from a pillar. The sign was receptive to the light and shadow of the desert, and during night time it was lit up, glowing neon red.

He stayed there that day, (then) a > high order came out, so that the soldiers brought stones and a high sign, > like a lighthouse was put in that place. Master stonecutters inscribed on it > the date of that day, so that to leave the reminder on the face of time.
