Star locale: Celebrities call Park City and Deer Valley home
But for now that title belongs to Montel Williams.
Or should it go to Tony Danza?
Cheech Marin, anyone?
Though not exactly the biggest names in Tinseltown, they are among the celebrities who own homes in and around Park City. The resort town 20 miles east of Salt Lake City has long been a mountain getaway for the rich and famous. Corporate honchos, an ambassador, even a potential presidential candidate maintain cozy hideaways along the Wasatch Back.
And rumors about who lives here fly like snowflakes in a winter storm.
Word is Lisa Kudrow has a place in Park City.
So does James Caan.
John Cusack used to have a house here.
So did Kevin Bacon. And don't forget Gene Hackman.
That guy from the Beastie Boys, Adam Yauch didn't he live here, too?
While none of those names came up in a search of current Summit County property tax records, many others did. And just because they weren't there doesn't necessarily mean they don't or didn't own a condo or house in Park City. It could just mean they're listed under another name or have moved on. Maybe they did nothing more than a little house hunting.
You won't find Tony Danza's name on the property tax rolls. But you will find Anthony Iadanza, his real name. Danza nearly died after a skiing accident in 1992 and considered selling his Deer Valley house.
The star of the 1980s sitcom "Who's the Boss?" wasn't available for an interview because he is opening on Broadway and is in tight rehearsals, according to his publicist.
Actor Scott Wolf is best known for his role as Baily Salinger on the Fox series "Party of Five" in the late '90s. He and his wife moved to Park City when he joined the cast of the made-in-Utah TV series "Everwood." Although the show was canceled, he still makes Utah his home while starring in the new ABC drama "The Nine," filmed in Los Angeles.
Three "Everwood" co-stars, Treat Williams, Tom Amandes and Gregory Smith, maintained homes during the show.
Park City is attractive to stars for several reasons, said local real estate agent Carlyle Morris.
It's close to Salt Lake City International Airport, so people can fly in and be skiing the same day. Vacation homes and condos aren't as pricey as they are in Vail and Aspen in Colorado. And perhaps more importantly, Park City offers a degree of privacy that some high-profile resorts do not.
