Station Casinos and Red Rock Resorts Chairman and CEO Frank Fertitta is New York City’s newest premium coop owner. The news came to light after property records revealed that he’s the mystery buyer of one of two duplex Manhattan penthouses at the chichi 520 Park Avenue highrise.<\/span><\/p>\n

Billionaire Frank Fertitta is the new owner of one of the top floors of this building that towers over Manhattan’s Central Park. (Image: 520 Park Avenue\/Clint Jenkins\/UFC\/Montage: Casino.org)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The six-bedroom duplex is one of the priciest units in the 54-story condo tower. Fertitta, who sold the UFC with his brother Lorenzo for an eye-popping $4.2 billion in July of 2016, remains the top dog at Nevada’s Station Casinos and controls 29 percent of the company’s shares. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

He’s the latest casino mogul to take up residence on Manhattan’s “Billionaires’ Row,” a series of skyscrapers surrounding Central Park. Melco Resorts owner Lawrence Ho recently dropped $65 million<\/a> on a lavish penthouse just three blocks away, at 432 Park Avenue. Ho’s pad also overlooks the Park, as well as his building’s neighbor, Trump Tower.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Fertitta’s main abode, however, is still in Las Vegas, where he lives with his wife and three children. <\/span>Forbes <\/i>estimates his worth to be just short of $2 billion. The brothers had initially purchased the UFC in 2000 for just $2 million, making it one of the best sports investments ever made.<\/span><\/p>\n

Red Rock in the Red<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Station Casinos, which largely targets the locals market in the Silver State, purchased the Palms Casino Resort through its parent company, Red Rock Resorts, for $312.5 million in May of 2016<\/a>. Red Rock’s newest property helped raise its second quarter earnings in 2017 by almost 15 percent compared to 2016, with the Palms delivering $39.8 million in new net revenue.<\/span><\/p>\n

But while revenues for the first six months of the year totaled $821.2 million, after operating expenses, Red Rock reported a loss of more than $6.1 million.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Red Rock operates 20 casinos in total in Nevada, as well as having properties in both Michigan and California. <\/span><\/p>\n

Getting High Across America<\/h2>\n

With just slightly more than 9,000 square feet of indoor living space, Fertitta’s new six-bedroom duplex penthouse is massive by Big Apple standards.
