Gerard McNamee, who is the current operator, announced the news earlier on a Facebook post:

The legendary venue is to be purchased in a joint venture between Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment and AEG Presents. According to reports, Webster Hall will become a more concert-centric venue, with fewer club nights. They even plan on replacing the Marlin Room with an extra bar and waiting area.
