Eastside Cannery Is Imploded on Boulder Highway

Boyd Gaming brought down the 16-story Eastside Cannery tower at 2 a.m., six years after the locals casino closed for the pandemic and never reopened; the site is being sold for housing.

Crews imploded the shuttered Eastside Cannery in the early morning hours of Thursday 5 March 2026, nearly six years to the day after it closed^[1].
Boyd Gaming set the implosion for 2 a.m. and held it as a private event with no public viewing areas^[4]; spectators gathered at the Longhorn Casino across Boulder Highway anyway^[3].
The casino at Boulder Highway and Harmon Avenue opened in 2008 as a replacement for the Nevada Palace; Boyd bought it with Cannery Casino Resorts in 2016^[1].
It closed with every Nevada casino in March 2020 and stayed dark, with customers directed to Boyd's nearby Sam's Town^[1].
Boyd confirmed in October 2025 that it was in talks to sell the site for residential use^[1].
The 16-story tower held 307 rooms and cost $250 million to build^[2].
