An ambitious exploration into high-end residential markets across the globe.

Chevy Chase, Maryland | Daniel Heider, TTR Sotheby’s International Realty
The Corby Mansion, built in 1893 for Francis Newlands, is a landmark in America’s first planned suburb designed by Chevy Chase architect Leon E. Dessez. A Congressman and Senator from Nevada, Newlands named the estate “Ishpiming,” meaning “high ground” in Chippewa. Senator Newlands was the organizer and first president of the Chevy Chase Club as well as a developer with the Chevy Chase Land Company. This highly coveted landmark estate prompted official inquiries regarding the possibility of it serving as the Vice President’s residence. The estate was instead sold to “Mother’s Bread” heir William S. Corby in 1909.

The Tung Street apartments are in a good location; but can’t imagine that they can top some of the ones above (like the one in Moscow). Some more interior shots would be good.
