The Hagadone Corporation owns and operates a diverse group of companies mainly in the Publishing, Newspaper and Hospitality industries.
The creator of the Hagadone Corporation is mister Duane Hagadone.
He owns a mega mansion. Where can I read Duane Hagadone's bio? Searched the web and could not find a biography.
Duane Hegadone is super rich. He was born in 1920 and is best known for his huge property in Palm desert – California, having some covered area of 64,000sq.ft. The area is 16 times of the officially approved limit. Hegadone blamed the discrepancy on the engineers who overlooked the permitted limit and seek approval from the local authorities for extended area.
The saga started when the millionaire, laid down his plans for a gigantic building before the authorities. The officials were ecstatic about the $30 Mention project. They considered the home to be a real jewel- a thing of the art and a model of unique architecture. It was even planned to raise the funds by publicizing the architecture in global magazines hence Hegadone was allowed an eight time extension to the covered area limit that was 32,000sq.ft. The home was to have a rooftop built of copper mimicking mountains and walls made of rocks that would have to be brought from the hills, but the dreams have all but shattered.
The home ruined the natural beauty of the area as per locals. It just crushes the beauty of serene night with shining artificial lights and it has blocked the natural view of the mountains. To cut the story short villa has turned out to be exact reverse of everything conceived of it and the exceeding the area limit granted is on top of it.
Duane Hegadone also owns a Yacht named after her wife Lady Lola. The yacht is even equipped with fully functional golf course and speed boats to bring back the stray golf balls. The yacht also has its own helipads and helicopters, a submarine which can accommodate three people at a time.
Duane Hagadone WASN'T born in 1920. He was born in 1932.
He is known for his habit of trying to destroy local neighborhoods for his own gain.
He tried to demolish a low-income apartment building so he could build a botanical garden. He is currently in the process of trying to 'develop' a local park that would include TEARING OUT the softball field and baseball diamond, as well as the only public boat launch left in town (which is illegal, but that's never stopped him before.)
In a nut shell, he is a feudal lord wannabe who upon his eventual demise will be the cause for dancing in the streets.
