got a big gift for the holidays. The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board has announced the Sands Bethworks Gaming, a subsidiary of Las Vegas Sands has been approved for a state gaming license. The company will now begin construction on a massive casino complex that will be located on the site of the former Bethlehem Steel plant. The first phase of the "Sands BethWorks" project will include a 300-room hotel, 3,000 slot machines, multiple dining and entertainment venues, the National Museum of Industrial History and the broadcast home of the local PBS affiliate.
