Follow the Yellow Brick Road and it'll lead you to a new casino in Chittenango. The Oneida Indian Nation announced plans to expand, adding a new $20 million casino to the area.

The 67,000 square foot Yellow Brick Road Casino will honor L Frank Baum, the author of the Wizard of Oz and feature over 430 slot machines, a bingo hall, restaurants, a bar and a general store.

Oneida Nation Representative and Nation Enterprises CEO Ray Halbritter tells CNY Central, 'Our expansion with this new casino is yet another opportunity for the Oneida Nation to create more jobs for Central New Yorkers, to invest in our region’s economic growth, and to improve and diversify our guest experience.'

The new casino will create 250 full time jobs and should be open in the Spring of 2015 in the Chittenango Tops plaza off Route 5.
