Another article says that the asking price had been previously reported as between 0.5 and 0.6 billion.
Let's keep this in perspective. It may have a nice view, but it's only ninety thousand acres. That wouldn't even put him in the top hundred landholders in the US.
Fun fact: Nicole Kidman's family owns twenty-two million acres of land.
- gbhn 14y agoInteresting! Check out http://www.landreport.com/americas-100-largest-landowners/ http://www.landreport.com/americas-100-largest-landowners/ for the U.S. Largest is John Malone: 2.2M acres in Colorado, Wyoming, the Dakotas.
- waterlesscloud 14y agoInterestingly, this report shows that 90,000 acres would put him in the running for top 100 landowners in the US. http://208.106.193.21/documents/property_pdfs/Top100Landowners.pdf http://208.106.193.21/documents/property_pdfs/Top100Landowne... The list Jeff Bezos as #27 with 290,000 acres. Huh.
- philwelch 14y agoThe list is by acreage and not value, though. Which makes Bezos' position on the list pretty funny, since the neighborhood Amazon is based in--South Lake Union--is owned by Paul Allen.
