Bye-bye, brothel: Mustang razed
- Share via
From Times Wire Reports
The last remaining building on the grounds where the state’s first legal brothel once stood is history. The 48-room structure known as the Mustang Ranch II annex was destroyed in a firefighting training exercise.
The government, which padlocked the Mustang Ranch just east of Reno in 1999 after years of tax problems, sold the pink stucco buildings that formed the heart of the complex to another brothel owner, who moved them to another site and operates them under the same name.
