Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico was a failed luxury condominium-hotel resort located in the Playas de Tijuana borough of Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, just 30 minutes south of downtown San Diego. It was initially announced in 2006 as a joint venture between the Trump Organization and Los Angeles-based real estate development company Irongate. Investors were led to believe that Trump CEO Donald J. Trump was personally supervising the entire project; Trump's daughter Ivanka stated that the elder Trump was "involved in every capacity."〔http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D96ONQO00&show_article=1〕 This was the second Trump-Irongate joint venture, and followed the more successful Trump International Hotel and Tower (Honolulu) venture. The project was to be a 3 tower, 25 story, 526 unit condo-hotel. In late 2008, with the project experiencing delays and cost overruns, Trump removed his name from the development. In early 2009, The Associated Press reported〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Trump Baja venture leaves buyers high and dry )〕 that the project had collapsed financially; investors who had put down deposits on the project condos faced a total loss of their investments (typically $200,000 - $300,000 per person). After its collapse, Trump (whose videos promoting the development had been shown to potential investors) suddenly claimed that he had been little more than a spokesperson for the entire venture, and disavowed any financial responsibility for the debacle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Buying a Trump Property, or So They Thought )〕 In the litigation that ensued in a California court, Trump's attorneys sought to question a San Diego Union-Tribune reporter about a 2006 story with the headline "Trump puts 'brand' on Baja with condo-hotel," which quoted Trump as being a "significant," equity investor in the development.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Trump puts "brand" on Baja with condo-hotel )〕 Citing California's Shield Law, a California court rejected Trump's effort, siding with attorneys James J. Manning, Jr. and Scott Talkov on behalf of the newspaper reporter. ==See also== * List of tallest buildings in Tijuana * List of hotels in Mexico * List of companies of Mexico 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
