Chicago Controversy includes Marco Island Luxury Penthouses

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Retired Associate RE Broker

I got a very interesting Google Alert this morning about Marco Island entitled The memory, it gets fuzzy in the heat reported by John Kass of the Chicago Tribune.

It caught my attention with the reference to a Penthouse on Marco Island, so I had to click and read. Then I read the article and thought, now this is an interesting tale of corruption. Better than some of the intrigue we see on TV these days. And all around the latest jewel in the Marco Island crown -- The Madeira. This is an interesting reading for Marco Island residents...

For those of you not familiar with The Madeira, on Marco Island it was completed in October 2006. Situated in the center of Marco Island's Crescent Beach of sugar sand as you can see from this Aerial View of the Madeira. This European designed condo has 101 Residences ranging from 2,631 up to 6,500 square feet. Exclusive Living is an understatement.

It appears that Marco Island appeals to everyone!

Colleen, Ines has posted on Marco Island a couple of times, it is a beautiful place.  I can't imagine having the kind of money that it would take to live there.

Yes there are more affordable options on Marco Island.   Still very expensive. I just find the corruption story pretty amazing!
