What's Hot: A (Slight) Price Drop For Dianne Feinstein's DC Home | The Plans For a 68-Unit Condo/Townhouse Project in Downtown Bethesda
Mr. Spitzer Goes to Washington
Disgraced ex-NY governor Elliot Spitzer is returning to DC, but this time it’s for legitimate reasons. His father’s real estate company, where he now works, is buying 1615 L Street NW for $180 million, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The 13-story building is on L Street between 16th and 17th. Interestingly, this is just one block from the Mayflower Hotel, the venue that led to the Governor’s downfall.
From the WSJ:
“The move is part of the ex-governor’s re-emergence into public life and a renewed interest in the successful real-estate business founded by his father, Bernard Spitzer. In an interview, Mr. Spitzer spoke about the investment, the economy and about his new life in business after “a detour along the way” as New York’s attorney general and governor.”
So, does this mean that we will see Mr. Spitzer relocating here permanently? Probably not, but we’ll keep tabs on whether or not he’s house-hunting.
