If you’ve stepped inside VLT over the last decade, you’ve seen the incredible work of Otto Poticha. Otto has been an invaluable part of the VLT family since the 1990s, lending his talent and vision to design our Phase 1 and Phase 2 remodels. We're thrilled to share that Otto is working with us once again to plan our final Phase 3 capital project.

We 💜 Otto!

It’s 1960, and Otto Poticha and his wife, Sharon Scott East Poticha, are driving around the country, and even into British Columbia, to, as he calls it, “interview cities.
