    The Golden Nugget was originally built in 1946,
    [3]
    making it one of the oldest casinos in the city.
    Jackie Gaughan
    at one time owned a stake in the hotel as part of his many downtown properties.
    [4]
    Steve Wynn
    bought a stake in the Nugget, which he increased so that, in 1973, he became the majority shareholder, and the youngest casino owner in Las Vegas.
    [5]
    In 1977 he opened the first hotel tower and the resort earned its first four diamond rating from
    Mobil Travel Guide
    . It was the foundation for Wynn's rise to prominence in the casino industry. The second hotel tower opened in 1984 along with the showroom, and the third tower was opened in 1989. In 2000, the Golden Nugget (and all of
    Mirage Resorts
    ' other properties) was sold to
    MGM Grand, Inc.
    (later named MGM Mirage).
    Although the Golden Nugget was profitable, it was not part of the master expansion plan of the corporation which was focused on consolidating a long stretch of the Strip by acquiring Mandalay Resort Group, building City Center, and beginning construction in Macau. Gaming revenue on Fremont Street had peaked in fiscal year 1993. The Golden Nugget was sold in 2003, for 5 million to
    Poster Financial Group
    , owned by Timothy Poster and
    Thomas Breitling
    . When Poster Financial assumed control of the Golden Nugget, they began to upgrade the gambling operation by installing new cashless
    slot machines
    and by increasing the maximum bet available at
    table games
    to ,000. Their story became the basis for
    The Casino
    , a television series on
    Fox
    that premiered on June 14, 2004.
    The
    Hand of Faith
    On February 4, 2005,
    Houston, Texas
    -based
    Landry's, Inc
    announced its intent to purchase the property and the
    Golden Nugget Laughlin
    . The sale closed on September 27, 2005. After the purchase, the Golden Nugget embarked on a 14-month, 0 million renovation project, which was completed in November 2006. In December 2007, the Golden Nugget completed its million Phase II project, which expanded the resort west onto First Street and introduced additional entertainment, event and dining venues. Phase III was the opening of the 500-room, 0 million Rush hotel Tower on November 20, 2009 along with the Chart House restaurant.
