Billionaire Carl Icahn wants to get rid of the mothballed Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
The investor told The Wall Street Journal he has hired CBRE Group Inc. to market the 3,889-room casino resort, which sits unfinished at the north end of the Strip.
Icahn bought the property out of bankruptcy in 2010 for an estimated $150 million, and CBRE expects to sell Fontainebleau for about $650 million, according to the report.
The casino resort was already 70 percent complete when it filed for bankruptcy protection in 2009 after its lenders cut off $800 million in funding. At the time, Fontainebleau had a construction budget of $3 billion.
