Locals are seeing mansions replaced by empty lots as buyers prioritize privacy, security, and custom amenities. Would you want to live in a place where your neighbor could be a billionaire—and might buy up the whole block? #RealEstate #PalmBeach #Billionaires00Share
Brad Caldwell+FollowPalm Beach billionaire transforms 'eyesore' into eco havenA neglected patch of mangrove swamp in Palm Beach, once overrun with trash and invasive species, is getting a new lease on life thanks to billionaire Thomas Peterffy. Instead of developing the land, Peterffy is restoring it—removing invasive plants and cleaning up debris twice a year. This move not only helps local wildlife but also supports climate efforts by preserving a natural carbon sink. Plus, the $1.3 million paid for the land will boost other conservation projects. Imagine if more unused spaces were turned into thriving habitats—how would that change our neighborhoods? #RealEstate #PalmBeach #Conservation11Share
