Stanley Willers Bio<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n
Stanley Ho Willers was born to Angela Ho, the eldest daughter of the late casino magnate\u2019s 17 children<\/a>, and her husband at the time, Uwe Willers. Angela was born to Stanley Ho\u2019s<\/a> first wife, Clementina Leitao.<\/span><\/p>\n
Little is known about Uwe Willers. Angela later divorced him and married Peter Kjaer, a Danish artist and businessman. Together, they opened a ballet school in Hong Kong and formerly owned an art gallery in New York City. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\nStanley Willers has used his vast inheritance for his own business endeavors, primarily Ho Gaming.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Founded in 2006, the Malta-based business-to-business iGaming firm provides live dealer and software management services to online casinos operating across Asia. Ho Gaming\u2019s live dealer table game streams include blackjack, roulette, baccarat, and sic bo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Willers\u2019 mother bought the property at 53 W. 71st in November 2012 for $5.99 million. <\/span>After acquiring the brownstone, the real estate listing says the home underwent a multiyear renovation by Ingui Architecture. The multimillion-dollar overhaul, the home details suggest, resulted in a \u201cresidence of exceptional flow, continuity, and technical sophistication.\u201d <\/span>Ho later gifted the brownstone to her son.<\/p>\n
The property is certified as a Passive House, a recognition for properties that meet energy performance standards as defined by the Passive House Institute US.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
\u201cBuildings certified to Passive House standards reliably provide a reduction in energy needed for heating and cooling of up to 90%, and up to 75% reduction in overall energy use, compared to existing buildings,\u201d the NYC Housing Preservation & Development website explains.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
