Fremont East Entertainment District (FEED), created in 2002, is an entertainment district in the heart of downtown Las Vegas, adjacent to the popular tourist attraction the Fremont Street Experience. FEED is currently comprised of 6 blocks, from Las Vegas Boulevard East to 8th Street and from Ogden Street South to Carson. In 2007, the Las Vegas Redevelopment Agency and Fremont East property and business owners committed $5.5 million through public-private partnership for a major streetscape improvement. FEED is a pedestrian friendly community that combines diverse street-life, local businesses, eateries, side-walk cafes, bars and cocktail lounges, lively entertainment, retail and residential living while preserving a historic gambling house.
