How much did the Dow go up while Biden was in office?
The iconic modernist Farnsworth House, designed by legendary architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, was sold at a high-profile Sotheby's auction for a final winning bid of 7.5 million US dollars (which included an $800,000 buyer's premium). The historic property had been put up for public auction by its owner, Lord Peter Palumbo. Fearing that the architectural masterpiece would be dismantled or relocated by private buyers, a coalition consisting of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Landmarks Illinois, and private philanthropic donors successfully pooled resources to win the auction and preserve the landmark for public heritage.
