From reading about VegasTech I thought 'The Ogden' was a building owned by Hsieh and restricted to startup people - but it appears that is just a normal building lots of them have chosen to live in? Anybody have an idea of the cost to rent a 2br?
- kevinbracken 13y agoTony does indeed own a large number of the units in The Ogden. This is mostly housing for VegasTechFund people, as well as "crash pads" with bunk beds for visitors. If I am not mistaken, the rent is about $2200 for a 2br
- wilfra 13y agoThanks. Where would you recommend to stay if I wanted to go for a week or two and check things out? I'd just be showing up unannounced (the VegasTechFund site seems to encourage that) but would want to get as close to an authentic experience as possible to what it would be like to actually live there.
- jeep 13y agoDefinitely somewhere downtown! Find someone on AirBnB, or hell, even stay at a downtown casino. They're still right in the middle of things. If you want to meet a lot of interesting people in the Vegas Tech scene, maybe you could attend a taping of the Downtown Podcast (http://downtownpodcast.tv/ http://downtownpodcast.tv/) or come to a Tech Jelly (https://twitter.com/VegasJelly https://twitter.com/VegasJelly).
