Watch live: Tropicana implosion to bring down Vegas casino in 'breathtaking spectacle'

In true Vegas fashion, Sin City is saying goodbye to one of its longest-standing Strip casinos with a bang.

Founded in 1957, the Tropicana Las Vegas will be demolished in an implosion scheduled for Wednesday at 2:30 a.m. local time.

While safety restrictions prevent any public viewing, the implosion will be be livestreamed as a " breathtaking spectacle , featuring 555 drones and a fireworks display," according to a Bally's news release.

The infamous resort closed on April 2, two days shy of its 67th anniversary, to make space for a 33,000-seat Major League Baseball stadium for the relocating Oakland Athletics.

Once 'the Tiffany of the Strip': For former showgirls, The Tropicana was home.

Once the 300-room property is wiped out, the Sahara will stand tall as the only Strip resort from the 1950s. The demolition marks the first time the city has blown up Strip casino since the leveling of the Riviera where the expanded Las Vegas Convention Center now lies.

Advisory warns of nearby cloud of 'Trop dust'

An air quality dust advisory has been issued for early hours after the Wednesday implosion as a cloud of "Trop dust" is expected around the area, according to the Clark County Department of Environment & Sustainability.

"We expect the dust could hang around for a few hours, but it won’t likely last for 24 hours," Division of Air Quality senior specialist Paul Fransioli said in a news release. "The dust cloud will be heaviest near the implosion site and will likely dissipate as moves eastward."

The advisory warns nearby tourists and residents to limit outdoor exertion, close windows and turn on air conditioning. Airborne dust poses the risk of aggravating respiratory diseases.

People with heart or lung disease, older adults and children could be at a greater risk from particulates, especially when physically active, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
