yes,
the brick building was the Apache. Next time you're there, go to the stairs in the back of the casino, near the newsstand. Go up those stairs, and you're in the Apache. Also, look for the "neptune" light fixture hanging over the bar near the front of the casino...that fixture is reported to be from Tony Cornero's SS Rex gambling ship. Around 1946 (I think) when Tony was operating the casino as the SS Rex he had the light fixture moved from the ship to the casino (ship was closed down by the feds).
