A new entertainment division of Howard Hughes Holdings could develop a new casino on the Las Vegas Strip — above Fashion Show mall.
The spinoff division for the Houston-based company, Seaport Entertainment, will take over entertainment operations of the company, which includes an 80 percent interest in the air rights above Fashion Show mall obtained through its ownership stake in Jean-Georges Restaurants, where a casino is being planned, according to a news release.
The new division also will control operations of the Las Vegas Aviators Triple-A baseball team and oversight of the Seaport neighborhood in New York City.
