Joe Edwards sold his iconic Moonrise Hotel and Magic Mini Golf to local investors, who intend to make cosmetic upgrades before joining the flagship Hilton brand, according to local news reports and the most recent print edition of The Times of Skinker DeBaliviere.
Mr. Edwards told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that he chose the buyers personally and will stay involved with the properties – that includes keeping his vast collection of space memorabilia on full display.
The Moonrise Hilton will join another Hilton property, Hiton Tru, two blocks west. Both locations are owned by the same local investment group.
