The projected casino to hold the Fontainebleau brand to Las Vegas might not be a dead endeavor in any case. An unnamed lender has emerged at bankruptcy hearings to provide financing to complete the casino resort if banks involved will unfreeze current loans.The judge hearing the bankruptcy, A. Jay Cristol, urged all parties to aim to seek out a workable compromise which might allow the project to move forward. He said litigating the problem would finally end up costing everyone hundreds of millions of dollars.
"It could be in everyone's best interest if this matter may well be resolved in a prudent businesslike manner instead of through litigation," said Cristol.
Bank of America and its partners had withheld a $656 million loan to construct the Fontainebleau, deciding that cost overruns and mismanagement had doomed the project. However the mysterious new lender will cover all further financing, consistent with rumors.
Word is that officials connected with Wynn Resorts and Harrah's Entertainment have bothe visited the development site of the gambling venue. While Harrah's could also be stretching itself to supply financing with its own situation unresolved, Wynn could also be in position to supply some cash.
