My 100th REVIEW !! WOO.
Container Park is one of a kind, it's a really sweet place to check out during the day AND night. Bring kids during the day to play in the extensive playground they have in the center of the park. There is a good amount of small shops to pop into and browse, everything from glassware to jewelry to swimwear, etc. And if you find stair access to the second level, you can actually walk in the Container Park sign! Looks really cool at night too. Lighting is great and everything looks very modern. It's quite clean and there's usually security lounging around too. There's a giant metal mantis by the entrance to greet you. By nightfall, it is illuminated by changing colored lights and looks even more majestic. I hear it spews fire every now and then but I have yet to see it!
If you're in town, definitely make a stop here. Careful with parking in the lots though, they're on top of what goes on with parking and all.. Make sure you pay for parking at the kiosk of the parking lot. And keep track of when you need to return.
Love Container Park and the area it is in! It is away from the super crazy crowds and busy-ness of the Strip but you still get the excellent Vegas experience.
