Frank Harris Memorial Community CenterThe community center is a recreation area with a performing arts center, indoor sports and general recreation buildings, and a museum about the history of Las Vegas. Originally built in the 80s, the various buildings have clearly seen better days. Though the interiors and equipment are outdated and display the passage of time and mark its heyday, the community center still offers a number of classes such as wood working, self defense, and cooking classes—most taught by older volunteers. Community theater productions are put on with four shows a year. The historical museum is musty and not well-attended. A docent can often be seen dozing near the entrance but can be awoken for tours that people report being mildly interesting.

Malone Circle ParkA park and playground that has fallen into disrepair since its opening in 1957 and has become a place for crime and unsavory activities. Ten years prior a murder occurred in the park and it was closed for a few months, but it never seemed to recover even after reopening. There is broken and graffiti'd playground equipment, some outdoor exercise equipment, and a few stone tables. The city has debated closing it down but for now, it remains open and a place people are warned away from.

Area 52Area 52 is Las Vegas' cutting-edge entertainment complex. Outside, the complex appears like an imposing, futuristic featureless gray cube. Inside, it is bursting with glowing colors against black lights. It houses a myriad of attractions from the mesmerizing Sigma Store by Bark Cat, a surreal grocery store and art installation, VR arenas, a video game arcade, and axe-throwing bars. The outdoor area hosts concerts and festivals. Many locals find the area less attractive than Crateful Dead due to the high concentration of tourists.

Crateful Dead ParkAn open-air shopping center with retail, restaurants, and live entertainment. The area gets its unusual name from the fact that the structures are all made from shipping crates. Shoppers can enjoy second-hand stores, off-beat boutiques, casual dining, and a board game cafe called "Connect Pour." Community events are held at the shopping center such as "Yoga in the Park" on Saturdays. There is also a metal, mechanical frog structure at the center of the shopping area that shoots flames. Every night at sundown (weather permitting) The Frog is awakened with a drum circle and shoots fire to music until 11 pm. Local music acts often play to the crowds during the nightly pyrotechnical show.
