03.02.2026 Bally’s inches closer to its $4B Bronx casino after a $157M land deal for Trump’s former golf course
Bally’s is rolling the dice on The Bronx after shelling out nearly $157 million for a slice of waterfront parkland where it plans to build a massive casino resort.
Property records show the Rhode Island-based gaming company paid about $156.6 million to the city for nearly 20 acres at Ferry Point Park near the base of the Whitestone Bridge, securing the key parcel for its proposed $4 billion Bally’s Bronx development.
The deal, which went into contract in November and closed Feb. 13, gives the company control of land currently used for the golf course clubhouse and parking areas, along with nearby roadways that will serve as the main approach to the future complex, Crains first reported.
