A lot of fantastic ideas have come to people over cocktail napkins and dinner meetings. And the sale of the Blue Heron designed custom home in the Henderson hillside MacDonald Highland community for $25 million is no different. Vegas Modern 001 was completed in April, listed for $28 million in early June and sold on June 25.

Four business associates, friends with ambitious goals, spectacular dreams, and the tenacity to manifest an audacious vision no matter the obstacle sit at the heart of this story.
