From the Daily News:
For $30 million, this Mill Basin mansion comes with everything and the kitchen sink. Four of them, actually, plus a dock for a dozen boats.
The most expensive Brooklyn home ever — asking twice as much as anything else on the market — it sprawls some 23,000 feet between a main house and guest house with 257 feet of Jamaica Bay frontage.
The 10-bedroom, 15-bath property is the 17-year passion project of Galina Anissimova, ex-wife of Russia’s 38th richest man, a shadowy minerals baron.
Her broker, James Cornell of The Corcoran Group, said she probably spent more than $30 million transforming the place .
“It’s perfect,” Cornell said. “It’s the highest quality everything I’ve ever seen in 24 years in the business.”
Perfection includes garage space for seven cars, a circular meditation room inscribed with signs of the Zodiac and a 1,000-square-foot outdoor pool — larger than many Brooklyn apartments — beside which sits a gigantic gazebo with room for 50 guests.

Before I even got to the 2nd paragraph I knew it was a Russian.
DA!
Only a Russkie would build like this. They even manage to outdo their Bukharian cousins.
This beats the piss pool entrance at the Queens Botanical Garden, and that angled rocket launch pad building they call an auditorium.
Susan Lacerte sure left her skid marks on the QBG.
Woah! That is one very expensive house. You could already erect a business building with that amount. It will be so incredible to look at though. I wonder what's inside the house.

I'm impressed! And only a 7 car garage for just $30 mil. Musta been union labor or the good fellas haven't yet left Brooklyn altogether.
LOL! How did I know it was Russian crimminal money, before I even read any further?!! Well, they are bringing life back to the area, right? All my relatives left in the 70s and 80s because Brooklyn had become a dangerous shithole. Can't say that anymore, I guess.
I bet it smells like cabbage in there.
Russkie mobskie!
This ain't the borscht belt!
