Description
At a height of 335 ft (102 m)}, the IP's hotel tower is the second tallest building in Mississippi (only the Beau Rivage is taller, while both casinos have the same number of floors equaling 32). Because the base of the IP Hotel is elevated some ten feet above the base of the Beau Rivage, it appears to be the taller of the two, although it is actually twelve feet shorter. Additionally, the IP Hotel features windows on every floor, while the Beau Rivage Hotel features windows that span two floors, which makes the height difference even more deceiving.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“The Sage of Toronto ... spent several decades marveling at the numerous freedoms created by a “global village” instantly and effortlessly accessible to all. Villages, unlike towns, have always been ruled by conformism, isolation, petty surveillance, boredom and repetitive malicious gossip about the same families. Which is a precise enough description of the global spectacle’s present vulgarity.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
“Once a child has demonstrated his capacity for independent functioning in any area, his lapses into dependent behavior, even though temporary, make the mother feel that she is being taken advantage of....What only yesterday was a description of the child’s stage in life has become an indictment, a judgment.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“It is possible—indeed possible even according to the old conception of logic—to give in advance a description of all ‘true’ logical propositions. Hence there can never be surprises in logic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
