History
Prior to 2005, the Trump Casino was owned by New York-based Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts. A Trump Hotel adjoined the property. In December 2005 The Trump Organization sold the casino and hotel to Majestic, which operated the immediately adjacent Majestic Star Casino.[1][2]
The two Majestic Star casinos closed in April, 2021. One license was transferred to the Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana, located inland in Gary.[1][3]
