The forward-thinking objective is that LVMD will be the premier general medical education, research and clinical care center. It will catalyze economic development and growth in the city’s economic core. The growth of the medical industry is key to Southern Nevada’s economic diversification strategy and the LVMD will help attract new, high-paying employers to the region as well as advance a higher quality of life standard with a thoughtful, well executed LVMD Master Plan. Further development of the LVMD will provide jobs, bolster the health of Southern Nevadans, and stimulate development near the city of Las Vegas’ vital assets like downtown, Symphony Park, and the Arts District.
