Herbert Haft was a Washington, D.C. based businessman who was famous first for the development of discount stores in the drug store, bookstore, and auto part businesses, and later as a corporate raider.
Haft's widow sold the property to Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska in 2006 for $15M. This home, as well as a number of Deripaska's other properties have been seized by the US Government in conjunction with an investigation into money-laundering, bribery, racketeering and murder.
