Roxbury Lanes and Roxy’s Casino, located at 2823 S.W. Roxbury St., have been sold for $5.8 million to Ryan and Sokha Kunkel, experienced entrepreneurs who previously revitalized the Iron Horse Casino in Auburn, reopening it as the Imperial Palace Casino. The property was previously owned by Store Master Funding VIII LLC, which acquired it in 2016 for $2.8 million. The Kunkels believe smaller card rooms thrive by offering a “personal” experience, contrasting with larger tribal casinos. They are actively expanding their presence in the local cardroom market, having also purchased Freddie’s Casino in Everett and planning a new location in Tukwila, reflecting a growing trend of independent owners revitalizing local gaming spots.
