Turnberry Place is a luxury high-rise condominium complex near the Las Vegas Strip in Winchester, Nevada.
At the time, residential high-rises were largely non-existent in the Las Vegas Valley, and the project was considered a risky endeavor.
However, upon completion of the first tower in 2001, Turnberry Place helped to inspire a condominium boom in the Las Vegas Valley.
Turnberry Place is a $650 million complex,[1] consisting of four 38-story condominium towers, each measuring 477 feet (145 m) in height.
[2][21] Upon its opening, Turnberry Place and the nearby Park Towers inspired a condominium boom in the Las Vegas Valley.
[2] Notable residents have included Alan King,[28][29] Robert B. Lewis,[30][29] Joe and Betty Weider,[30][29][31] James Caan, Rita Rudner,[32] Lee Majors,[33] Rachel Uchitel,[34][35][36] Rich Little,[37] and Andy Walmsley.
[39] In 2004, residents in the original tower filed a $21 million lawsuit against Turnberry Pavilion Partners, alleging construction defects.
[40] The El Rancho resort, previously the Thunderbird, had closed in 1992 and was considered an eyesore, especially for the future residents of Turnberry Place.
[43][44] Construction of the resort began in 2007, although residents took legal action against Turnberry Associates over the Fontainebleau's parking garage.
The private club included a bar and lounge, a swimming pool and spa, tennis courts, a fitness center, and a cigar and wine room.
[62] The club's operations were funded through $400 monthly HOA membership fees paid by Turnberry Place residents.
[65][66][67] A group of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, incorporated as JDLB LLC, purchased the club for more than $10 million in late 2013, with plans to eventually reopen it.
[72] At the end of 2018, a New Year's Eve party was held to attract new members for the Stirling Club, which was scheduled to formally open in 2019.
