Bellagio Las Vegas

According to reports, Blackstone Inc. is considering offers for half of its interest in the real estate of the Bellagio hotel in Las Vegas.

The property last changed ownership four years ago in a deal worth a reported $4.25 billion. However, while the reports suggest that the New York investment firm is considering offers, it has not committed to a sale although it is believed that any sale will be a partial sale only.
