An LVA source tips the Fertitta Brothers as the mystery buyers of Fontainebleau. They have at least two of the prerequisites: a “presence” in gaming and access to capital (Wall Street loves it some Red Rock Resorts these days). But … F-blew would be a heavy lift in terms of additional leverage, the Fertittas seem happy with their domination of the locals market (43%), and they’ve got some things up their sleeve with Durango Station and Wild Wild West — maybe even Reno — that I’m covering in a forthcoming Question of the Day. So I’d call ‘Fontainebleau Station’ a long shot, yet one of the most intriguing rumors I’ve heard in my tenure here.

The best asset Fontainebleau has is that long party deck out front. If you go to vegastodayandtomorrow.com and find Fontainebleau and look at the the rendering from August 8th, 2007 that party deck looks great. It kind of looks like the front of a yacht. On the party deck there would be dayclub pools with lots of drinking going on. Fontainebleau might also have a rooftop nightclub with a great view of the Strip.
Next door to the Fontainebleau is the All Net Arena and that probably will not get built so that might be a great location for a brand new UFC Arena instead. There is 27 acres of land there so maybe Red Rock Resorts and Archon Corporation can work out a deal for that parcel of land.
