Real Estate Bigwig Barbara Corcoran Eyes her Own Island
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Real estate maven and "Shark Tank" star Barbara Corcoran is looking to expand her empire -- specifically, with the purchase of her own $10.99 million private island.
Known as Tavern Island, off the coast of Rowayton, Conn. -- with views of the city skyline -- it, as we previously reported, was home to European settlers in 1651, and a popular party spot for Marilyn Monroe and Barbara Streisand 300 years later.
Rick Higgins, of Higgins Group Real Estate, has the listing.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}In April, The Post reported exclusively that Corcoran and her husband bought a $10 million duplex penthouse at 1158 Fifth Ave. that was originally asking $14.5 million.
