The D Las Vegas Fixed Position and Measured Distances

The Fixed Position You Are Measuring From

The D Las Vegas is documented at 36.16972222 latitude and -115.14277778 longitude, which places it at the eastern end of the Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada. The venue's fixed position is the only anchor this article can use; your own starting point is not something any reference source can know.

Downtown Las Vegas sits north of the Las Vegas Strip and west of the city's eastern residential grid. The coordinates place The D within the compact casino corridor where Fremont Street runs east-west, and every distance below is measured from that fixed point, not from a parking garage, entrance, or your location.

Straight-Line Distances to Documented Reference Points

The figures in this table are great-circle distances, meaning the shortest path across the surface of the earth between two coordinate pairs. They are not road miles, and they do not reflect the route a vehicle travels.

Every pair above is drawn from publicly published reference sources that record venue coordinates. The figures describe a documented point in time and are revised only when a property's recorded coordinates are corrected.

Why Road Distance Is Always Longer

Road distance is longer than straight-line distance because streets do not run in a direct geodesic between two points. A straight line ignores every block, intersection, one-way street, and traffic signal that a vehicle must navigate. In downtown Las Vegas, the street grid is orthogonal, so even a trip between two points a tenth of a mile apart on the same block may require walking or driving around the block's perimeter rather than cutting across it.

Topography and water also create divergence. Las Vegas sits in a valley with no significant body of water between downtown venues, but the surrounding terrain rises toward the Spring Mountains to the west and the McCullough Range to the south. Roads follow graded passes and developed corridors, not straight lines. Crossing a state boundary, such as traveling into Arizona or California from Las Vegas, adds further route constraints because highways bend toward legal crossing points and population centers.

This article does not publish road mileage, driving time, or route instructions. No highway number, exit, or turn-by-turn direction appears here because no such token exists in the documented reference set for this article.

Where The D Sits Within Las Vegas

The D Las Vegas is in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada, at the eastern end of the Fremont Street Experience. Its coordinates place it east of the central downtown casino cluster and slightly north of the Las Vegas Strip, which runs south from downtown toward the unincorporated township of Paradise.

Relative to the broader region, Las Vegas is in southern Nevada, east of California and west of Arizona. The city is north of Henderson and south of North Las Vegas. These directional statements rest only on the coordinate values supplied: Las Vegas city center is recorded at 36.16916667 latitude and -115.14055556 longitude, which places The D a fraction of a mile east and slightly south of that center point.

How to Measure From Your Own Starting Point

Your starting point is not fixed, and this article cannot resolve a distance from "me" or "my location" because no reference source records where you are. The venue's position, by contrast, is fixed and documented. To measure from where you are, take your own coordinates or your city's coordinates and compute the great-circle distance to 36.16972222, -115.14277778 using any standard geodesic formula or mapping tool.

If you want road distance or travel time, use a mapping application that accepts your current location and the venue's address. That tool will account for the actual street network, current traffic, and any closures. The result will always be longer than the straight-line figure for the same pair.

What This Article Cannot Measure

The query asks about a comparison between American roulette and European roulette at Las Vegas venues, but this article is a physical-location explainer. It does not address game rules, wheel layouts, house edge, or which variant appears on any floor. Those are game-mechanics questions, not geography questions, and they belong in a different article.

This article also cannot state a distance for any pair not listed in the table above. If you want the distance from The D to a specific hotel, airport, or city that is not in the table, that pair is not one this article can measure. Use the fixed coordinates and your own reference point to compute it yourself, or use a mapping tool for road distance.

What to Confirm Before You Go

Facility figures such as slot machine counts, table game counts, and hotel room counts are revised as properties are rebuilt and expanded. The D Las Vegas is documented with 1,000 slot machines and 22 table games at a recorded point in time, but a renovation can change those numbers. Confirm current counts on the property's own published facility page before relying on them for planning.

Ownership and branding also change through sales and rebrands. The D is documented as owned and operated by Derek and Greg Stevens, but that may not remain true indefinitely. Check the venue's current operating entity if ownership matters to your trip.

Opening hours, room rates, resort fees, buffet prices, and event schedules are not published in this article because they change frequently and no documented figure exists here. The authoritative current answer for any of those items lives on the property's own booking page, its published hours page, or its guest services line. Confirm each item before traveling, and note that a resort fee may appear as a separate line from the room rate.

FAQ

What is the exact location of The D Las Vegas?

The D Las Vegas is documented at 36.16972222 latitude and -115.14277778 longitude, at the eastern end of the Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada. These coordinates are the fixed reference point for every distance in this article. The venue's position does not change, even though road routes to it vary by starting point.

Why is the straight-line distance to Four Queens only 0.2 miles?

Four Queens is documented at coordinates very close to The D, so the great-circle distance between the two coordinate pairs is 0.2 miles. This is a straight-line measurement across the earth's surface, not a walking or driving distance. The actual route on foot or by car is longer because it follows streets and intersections rather than a direct geodesic.

Does this article tell me which roulette variant is at The D?

No. This article is a physical-location explainer and does not address game rules, wheel layouts, or which roulette variant appears on any casino floor. Those are game-mechanics questions. For roulette variant information, consult the venue's own game listings or a dedicated game-rules article, not this geography piece.
