Judge orders ADA modifications
In late March, U.S. District Judge Roger Hunt ordered Las Vegas's Stratosphere Tower to modify 532 of its 2,444 rooms with 32-inch interior bathroom doorways by autumn. The hotel-casino was sued by Nevada's Disabled Rights Action Committee for failing to offer a range of rooms that are accessible. The suit also charged the hotel with having inaccessible public restrooms, telephone booths and restaurants. Stratosphere Tower insists it is not violating the Americans with Disabilities Act.
