Tony does indeed own a large number of the units in The Ogden. This is mostly housing for VegasTechFund people, as well as "crash pads" with bunk beds for visitors. If I am not mistaken, the rent is about $2200 for a 2br

Thanks.

Where would you recommend to stay if I wanted to go for a week or two and check things out? I'd just be showing up unannounced (the VegasTechFund site seems to encourage that) but would want to get as close to an authentic experience as possible to what it would be like to actually live there.

Definitely somewhere downtown! Find someone on AirBnB, or hell, even stay at a downtown casino. They're still right in the middle of things.

If you want to meet a lot of interesting people in the Vegas Tech scene, maybe you could attend a taping of the Downtown Podcast (http://downtownpodcast.tv/) or come to a Tech Jelly (https://twitter.com/VegasJelly).
