AIG owns the majority stake of the hotel, which was co-developed by Hidrock Properties and the Buccini/Pollin Group, the report said.

Both AIG and Eastdil declined Bloomberg’s requests for comment.

A deal would add to the list of several other prominent sales this year. The Plaza Hotel sold for $600 million to Katara Hospitality, a hotel-centric subsidiary of Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund. This month, Host Hotel & Resorts sold the retail and commercial condo portion of the New York Marriott Marquis to Vornado Realty Trust for $442 million. Host Hotels also sold two W hotels in Manhattan for a combined $361 million. [Bloomberg] — Meenal Vamburkar
