LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Casino giant Caesars Entertainment is revealing some of the tenants lined up for a new dining, entertainment and shopping district opening next year with a big observation wheel amid some of the company's centerpiece Las Vegas properties.

Project chief Jon Gray likes to say the $550 million LINQ shopping, restaurant and entertainment development will be at the 50-yard line of the Las Vegas Strip.

He tells The Associated Press the LINQ master-planned project will include the first Western U.S. site of a Brooklyn Bowl concert, nightclub, bar, bowling alley and restaurant venue.

The three-story LINQ project will have 32 tenant storefronts.

Others include a two-story Yard House beer hall and a two-story Asian-themed food, art, music and entertainment venue featuring everything from sushi to noodles, robata and dim sum.
