Crown Resorts has offloaded a major Melbourne development site that was to be the home of a significant expansion as private equity owner Blackstone attempts to turn around its poorly performing investment.
New filings with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission show the private equity-owned casino group sold its One Queensbridge site in Melbourne for $85 million in August. It was once intended to be developed into a $1.75 billion, 90-floor hotel and apartment complex.
