Voyager Wheel

The folks at Voyager Entertainment insist that a giant, 600+-foot-tall observation wheel will be built in Las Vegas. So far, there have been six locations on or near the Las Vegas strip. All but one have failed. Note: It's not the folks at Voyager who are failing, the resort proposals fail.  The Montreux Resort is the current location. The renderings of each of these locations can be seen below. Starting from the top-left:

London Resort / El Rancho site
London Resort / Across from Luxor
Rio
Palace by the Sea Resort / Wet and Wild site
Voyager Resort / Westward Ho site
Montreux / New Frontier site (current plans)

The Pods

The orbiter pods on these super-wheels; seat 20 people, have restrooms, are air-conditioned,  and  have a cocktail server. Other configurations  of the cabs will be available, such as the wedding chapel orbiter (below) and a meeting-room orbiter.

A once-around ride takes about 45 minutes 

In many of the concepts (above) a multi-level nightclub encases the hub of the wheel. One can pass, from one side of the club to the other, by walking through the hub.
