Zuckerberg Buys $23M Mansion in Woodland Normanstone

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, has purchased a $23 million mansion in Washington D.C.'s Woodland Normanstone neighborhood, making it the third most expensive home sale in the city's history. The acquisition is reportedly intended to allow Zuckerberg to spend more time in the capital as Meta focuses on policy issues related to American technology leadership. This move is seen as part of a broader trend among tech CEOs establishing residences in D.C., possibly to maintain close ties with the current administration. The purchase was made in cash and marks Zuckerberg's continued investment in real estate, adding to his properties in Palo Alto, San Francisco, Lake Tahoe, and Hawaii. Speculation suggests that such acquisitions by tech leaders may be strategic, aiming to influence policy and maintain proximity to political power.
