Bill retired and the property has been sold as far as I know. Bluestar Motors now uses the building for a warehouse for fancy cars (Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc), but I suspect the whole property will be redeveloped soon. https://www.bluestarmotors.com/
The other half of the Hourston site was sold a while ago...the new owners I hear were denied a development permit by DofNV so it is sitting holding cars for someone else and up for lease. I don't think Bluestar appears to have plans other than using it for their business. They sold out of a property around 5th and Main over town so I think they're in good shape with the Hourston shop. They have been upgrading the building along the way, and its cool they kept the old Hourston sign up.
There was some significant value in the Hourston brand name but the value was in the dirt it seems.
