Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s already-sprawling Hawaii compound has just gotten even bigger.
The 110-acre acquisition includes most of the Ka Loko Reservoir – which broke in 2006 and killed seven people downstream after releasing an estimated 400 million gallons of water, the newspaper reports.
Mark Zuckerberg, chief executive officer and founder of Facebook Inc., arrives for a House Financial Services Committee hearing in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2019. As of Monday, the reservoir reportedly remains on Hawaii’s list of high-risk dams but is restricted by the state to a low water level to mitigate the risk of future disasters. It was built in 1890 and was once used by sugar plantation operator C. Brewer & Co., according to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. The newspaper, citing Kauai County property records, says an initial 1,272-square-foot home was built on Zuckerberg’s Kauai land in 2017.
