David E. Shaw is an American computer scientist and computational biochemist who founded D. E. Shaw & Co., a hedge fund company which was once described by Fortune magazine as "the most intriguing and mysterious force on Wall Street".
Shaw has drawn the ire of the community in his tearing down of 3 homes to build this mansion. When completed, the home will be over 38,000 sqft, plus a 3,100 sqft underground garage and will be heated by over 200 geothermal wells. Building permits alone have cost $428,000.
