From 1,056 acres of Colorado red rock to a rooftop pool over Miami Beach, with a permitted Napa winery and a Brooklyn townhouse in between.
This is the first one, and it is going out on a Tuesday because waiting three more days to start seemed like the worse idea. From here it is Mondays and Fridays.
A normal issue cuts from the trailing few days. This one reaches back across the whole first week the site has been publishing, because that backlog exists exactly once. No two houses here are in the same state, and no two of them are the same kind of house.
Every issue needs somewhere to start, and 1,056 acres of Colorado red rock is somewhere to start.
