Les Wexner to step down as the chair of the Columbus Partnership
In a long-expected move, Leslie H. Wexner will relinquish his position as the chair of the Columbus Partnership in January, stepping aside to allow two other longtime corporate leaders to guide the powerful civic organization.
Wexner announced the change during the Partnership's October meeting. Succeeding him as co-chairs of the organization's governing committee are Huntington Bank CEO Steve Steinour and AEP CEO Nick Akins, both of whom have been members of the Partnership for more than a decade. The decision continues the leadership transition occurring at the organization, which will also welcome a new CEO in January: Kenny McDonald, who is replacing Alex Fischer, who's served as the Partnership's chief executive for 12 years.
The organization's leaders didn't announce the latest leadership shift, but Partnership spokeswoman Irene Alvarez confirmed the change on Wednesday. Alvarez says Wexner will remain a member of the governing board and an adviser to the organization's top leaders.
"Columbus has changed and grown, and so has the Partnership's ability to serve it," Alvarez said in an email. "What you're seeing today, in terms of both CEO and board leadership transitions, is the result of succession planning that Alex, Les, and governing board members have been defining over the past couple of years. Les often comments on the importance of making room for new leaders in the community, and now, that belief is being put into practice. Having Nick and Steve take the helm as co-chairs, while Les remains at the table giving advice and counsel, is a condition that is both fortunate and strategic for the Partnership."
In 2002, Wexner co-founded the Partnership with the late Columbus Dispatch publisher John F. Wolfe and New Albany Co. chairman Jack Kessler, who remains a member of the partnership and its governing committee, which oversees the organization and its members and hires its chief executive. Since its founding, the Partnership has grown from just a handful of CEOs representing the city's largest companies to more than 70 leaders, including executives from emerging tech companies, nonprofits and smaller businesses.
Through it all, Wexner, 84, has been the undisputed guiding force for the organization, which he created to serve as a vehicle for the city's top business and community leaders to work together to address its most serious challenges. While both Steinour and Akins have become respected community leaders during their tenures with their companies, neither has the standing of Wexner, whose imprint can be seen all over Columbus, from the arts, to the riverfront to Ohio State University.
But Wexner has endured some difficult times in recent years. In 2020, Wexner resigned as CEO of L Brands after nearly six decades at the company. He struggled to turn around the business amid cultural shifts that tainted its then signature brand, Victoria's Secret, and revelations about his close connections to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. As a result, he has played a less visible role in community affairs in recent years, civic leaders say. And with Wexner having left his corporate role and having turned 84 in September, many have been expecting this leadership transition at the Partnership for some time.

More connections to high level 'Politicians' (Satan worshipers) and Jeffery Epstein, his foundations and numerous financial fronts, like The COUQ Foundation.
COLUMBUS (WCMH) - The Ohio State University says it is reviewing gifts made to the university connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
In 2007, the COUQ foundation, which is reported to be Epstein's private foundation, anonymously donated $2.5 million to the university.
https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/ohio-state-to-review-donations-connected-to-jeffrey-epstein/
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX/WTTE) - The Ohio State University announced Thursday that it has concluded its review of giving by Jeffrey Epstein and will donate $336,000 to the Ohio Attorney General's Human Trafficking Initiative.
During the investigation, EY found that gifts were received from the J. Epstein Foundation in the amount of $260,000 from 1990 to 1997. One additional document noted a potential total of $335,000 in gifts.
The university also reported a 2007 gift of $2.5 million from the COUQ Foundation, Inc. While Epstein was a director and officer of the foundation, the review found that this gift originated from the Wexner Children's Trust and the Leslie H. Wexner Charitable Fund and not from Epstein.

February 10, 2015 "ICH" - "The Guardian"- The charitable foundation run by Hillary Clinton and her family has received as much as $81m from wealthy international donors who were clients of HSBC's controversial Swiss bank.
Leaked files from HSBC's Swiss banking division reveal the identities of seven donors to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation with accounts in Geneva.
They include Frank Giustra, a Canadian mining magnate and one of the foundation's biggest financial backers, and Richard Caring, the British retail magnate who, the bank's internal records show, used his tax-free Geneva account to transfer $1m into the New York-based foundation.
He gave $25,000 to the Clinton charity in July 2006, the year after he was arrested following a complaint he sexually abused a 14-year-old teenager in Florida, according to tax disclosures from Epstein's New York-based nonprofit, the COUQ Foundation.

Mr. Black knew Mr. Epstein for more than two decades. Mr. Epstein was one of the original trustees of the Debra and Leon Black Family Foundation, which Mr. Black established in 1997, and stayed on the board for a decade.
Some prominent business figures - including Leslie H. Wexner, the retail mogul behind Victoria's Secret - cut ties with Mr. Epstein after his 2008 conviction in Florida on a charge of soliciting prostitution from a minor, but Mr. Black did not.
In 2015, a company tied to the Black foundation donated $10 million to one of Mr. Epstein's charitable organizations. And at Mr. Epstein's urging, Mr. Black gave an anonymous $5 million donation to the MIT Media Lab, according to a university report, and several million to professors at Harvard University.
Mr. Black has said he was "completely unaware" of the activities that led to the sex-trafficking charges against Mr. Epstein.

Secret Closing 250 Stores After Company Suffers a $275.2 Million Quarterly Loss
Victoria's Secret will permanently close around 250 stores in the U.S. and Canada in 2020, parent company L Brands announced Wednesday.
The company made the announcement Wednesday in their first-quarter fiscal report.
The parent company L Brands has said it plans to spin-off Bath & Body Works and operate Victoria's Secret as a standalone business. L Brands was founded in 1963 by Leslie H. Wexner in Columbus, Ohio. Wexner was the only known client of disgraced money manager Jeffrey Epstein, who was found dead in a New York jail cell in 2019.
The company has been hard hit by the economic turmoil of the coronavirus. Nearly all of its stores in the U.S. closed in March and those that will reopen are not expected to open until July.
L Brands said its overall sales for the three months ended May 2 fell 37 percent compared with a year ago. Gross profit fell 59 percent. The company lost $275.2 million in the quarter, compared with net income of $40.3 a year ago. Profits per share were down 807 percent for a loss of 99 cents per share.

Such is the fate of one of Manhattan's largest town houses, a majestic stone mansion at 9 East 71st Street. Possessing some 21,000 square feet, the house was recently the uninhabited domain of Leslie H. Wexner, the founding chairman of the Limited Inc., the retailing company.
Mr. Wexner bought the house in 1989 for $13.2 million and lavished tens of millions on renovations, art and furnishings. Those curious to see the princely accommodations Mr. Wexner abandoned need look no further than the cover of last month's Architectural Digest. When asked how long Mr. Wexner had occupied the property, Jeffrey Epstein, his protege and one of his financial advisers, replied, "Les never spent more than two months there." Thus the prorated cost of Mr. Wexner's sejours would appear to have been in excess of a million dollars a day.
Visitors described a bathroom reminiscent of James Bond movies: hidden beneath a stairway, lined with lead to provide shelter from attack and supplied with closed-circuit television screens and a telephone, both concealed in a cabinet beneath the sink. The house also has a heated sidewalk, a luxurious provision that explains why, while snow blankets the rest of the Eastern Seaboard, the Wexner house (and Bill Cosby's house across the street) remains opulently snow-free, much to the delight of neighborhood dogs.
Across the street from the Wexner house stands the balustraded neo-Renaissance house of Robert W. Miller, the duty-free-shop executive, and his wife, Chantal. Visitors describe the house as being resplendent with a collection of Old Master paintings and boulle furniture, including a Louis XIV desk whose twin is at Versailles. But the Millers choose to live on the 22d floor of the nearby Hotel Carlyle instead because Mrs. Miller prefers the view.
The magnificent Miller house, whose interior has been conjured by the Venetian designer Renzo Mongiardino, usually languishes unoccupied, though it is occasionally used by the Millers' daughter Marie-Chantal and her recent bridegroom, Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece.

Epstein's Elite Wall Street Ties Revealed In Filing
Jeffrey Epstein's wealth has long been a topic of discussion since becoming known as a 'billionaire pedophile' and other similar monickers. Described by prosecuitors this week as a "man of nearly infinite means," a 2011 SEC filing has provided a window into the registered sex offender's elite Wall Street links, according to the Financial Times.
Epstein, who caught a lucky break tutoring the son of Bear Stearns chairman Alan Greenberg before joining the firm, left the investment bank in 1981 to set up his own financial firm. While he reportedly managed money for billionaires for decades, most of Epstein's dealings have been done in the shadows.
A 2011 SEC filing reveals that Epstein's privately held firm, the Financial Trust Company, took a 6.1% stake in Pennsylvania-based catalytic converter maker Environmental Solutions Worldwide (ESW) backed by Leon Black, the billionaire founder of Apollo Global Management.
ESW itself has a checkered past. In 2002, its then-chairman Bengt Odner was accused by the SEC of participating with others in a $15 million "pump and dump" scheme with ESW stock. The case was settled a year later according to FT, with Odner ordered to pay a $25,000 civil penalty. Of note, ESW accepted Epstein's investment several years after he had registered as a sex offender in a controversial 2008 plea deal in Florida.
Epstein's connection to Black doesn't stop there - as the financier served as a director on the Leon Black Family Foundation for over a decade until 2012 according to IRS filings. A spokeswoman for the foundation claims that Epstein had resigned in July 2007, and that his name continued to appear on the IRS filings "due to a recording error" for five years. A 2015 document signed by Epstein provided to the Financial Times appears to confirm this.
Epstein also built his wealth with Steven J. Hoffenberg and Leslie H. Wexner, the former of whom was convicted of running a giant Ponzi scheme, and the latter a clothing magnate.

A 2011 SEC filing reveals that Epstein's privately held firm, the Financial Trust Company, took a 6.1% stake in Pennsylvania-based catalytic converter maker Environmental Solutions Worldwide (ESW) backed by Leon Black, the billionaire founder of Apollo Global Management.
ESW itself has a checkered past. In 2002, its then-chairman Bengt Odner was accused by the SEC of participating with others in a $15 million "pump and dump" scheme with ESW stock. The case was settled a year later according to FT, with Odner ordered to pay a $25,000 civil penalty. Of note, ESW accepted Epstein's investment several years after he had registered as a sex offender in a controversial 2008 plea deal in Florida.
Epstein's connection to Black doesn't stop there - as the financier served as a director on the Leon Black Family Foundation for over a decade until 2012 according to IRS filings. A spokeswoman for the foundation claims that Epstein had resigned in July 2007, and that his name continued to appear on the IRS filings "due to a recording error" for five years. A 2015 document signed by Epstein provided to the Financial Times appears to confirm this.
Mr. Epstein's wealth may have depended less on his math acumen than his connections to two men - Steven J. Hoffenberg, a onetime owner of The New York Post and a notorious fraudster later convicted of running a $460 million Ponzi scheme, and Leslie H. Wexner, the billionaire founder of retail chains including The Limited and the chief executive of the company that owns Victoria's Secret.
Mr. Hoffenberg was Mr. Epstein's partner in two ill-fated takeover bids in the 1980s, including one of Pan American World Airways, and would later claim that Mr. Epstein had been part of the scheme that landed him in jail - although Mr. Epstein was never charged. With Mr. Wexner, Mr. Epstein formed a financial and personal bond that baffled longtime associates of the wealthy retail magnate, who was his only publicly disclosed investor. -New York Times
"I think we both possess the skill of seeing patterns," Wexner told Vanity Fair in 2003. "But Jeffrey sees patterns in politics and financial markets, and I see patterns in lifestyle and fashion trends."
Those around Wexner were mystified over Wexner's affinity for Epstein.
"Everyone was mystified as to what his appeal was," said Robert Morosky, a former vice chairman of The Limited. "I checked around and found out he was a private high school math teacher, and that was all I could find out. There was just nothing there."
As the New York Times noted on Wednesday, Epstein's "infinite means" may be a mirage, as while he is undoubtedly extremely rich, there is "little evidence that Mr. Epstein is a billionaire."
While Epstein told potential clients he only accepted investments of $1 billion or more, his investment firm reported having $88 million in capital from his shareholders, and 20 employees according to a 2002 court filing - far fewer than figures being reported at the time.
And while most of Epstein's dealings are unknown, his Financial Trust Company also had a $121 million investment in DB Zwirn & Co, which shuttered its doors in 2008, and had a stake in Bear Stearns's failed High-Grade Structured Credit Strategies Enhanced Leverage Fund - the collapse of which helped spark the global financial crisis.
Bear Stearns - the bank that had given Mr. Epstein his start - was still among his investments when the crisis hit. According to a lawsuit he later filed against the bank, Mr. Epstein controlled about 176,000 shares of Bear Stearns, worth nearly $18 million, in August 2007.
Mr. Epstein sold 56,000 shares at $101 each that montH. He sold the remaining 120,000 shares in March 2008 as the firm was collapsing - 20,000 at $35 and the rest at $3.04, losing big. He also lost about $50 million in one of Bear's hedge funds.
By the time Bear Stearns came apart, Mr. Epstein was at the center of his first abuse case. He pleaded guilty to prostitution charges in 2008, receiving a jail sentence that allowed him to work at home during the day but also required him to register as a sex offender. -New York Times

Along those lines… No one can decide how big his "town home" in NY actually is. WEIRD!
"Often referred to as one of the largest townhouses in Manhattan-at 21,000 square feet and seven stories, 45,000 square feet and eight stories, or 50,000 square feet and nine stories, depending on who's describing it and when-the stone mansion at 9 East 71st Street was built in 1933. It was designed by society architect Horace Trumbauer for Herbert N. Straus, one of the heirs to the Macy's department store fortune, who died before it was completed.
It's been said that "entire 18th-century rooms were purchased to be shipped to New York and installed in the new mansion," and the Metropolitan Museum of Art has an exhibit in its period rooms collection with fixtures from a French hotel acquired by Herbert's wife Therese in a timeline that would fit the mansion's construction. She donated them to the Met in 1943, a year before the mansion was converted into a convalescent home, after the Straus family donated it to the Roman Catholic Archbishopric of New York. These photos offer an interesting picture of the conversion process, which shows much of the interior fixtures stripped away.
In 1961, the mansion became home to the Birch Wathen School, which it remained until Leslie H. Wexner, the founding chairman of the Limited Inc., bought it in 1989 for $13,200,000. Wexner hired architect Thierry Despont and interior designer John Stefanidis to help gut the 40-room home, showing it off in the December 1995 issue of Architectural Digest (sadly, the magazine's online archives don't go back that far). In 1996, the New York Times referred to the sumptuously decorated, expensively renovated pied-à-terre as the latest "puzzling" "status symbol of the ultra rich," when it reported that Wexner never spent more than a few months in the home."

Found this story late last night and posted it but not sure it was seen since it was so late.
Epstein's 'Wexner' mansion was bought by the Straus family (R.H. Macy) years AFTER Isidor and Ida Strauss died on the Titanic. They bought it from Edward H. Van Ingen but I can't find much info on him.
The block was going to be turned into apartments but the deal fell through so Straus just renovated the mansion. Neighbors included Virginia Graham Fair Vanderbilt, William Goadby Loew and George F. Baker, for instance.
Years later in 1944, the Straus family donated the house to the Roman Catholic Archbishopric of New York which turned it into an extension of St. Clare's Hospital...what The Times would call a "sumptuous fifty-bed convalescent institution." The facility operated as St. Clare's from September 8, 1945 to July 24, 1961.
The building was purchased by the Birch Wathen School, a college preparatory day school for well-to-do boys and girls from kindergarten through grade 12.
The school would remain here for over two decades before moving uptown. In 1989 retail mogul Leslie H. Wexner, founder of The Limited purchased No. 9 East 71st Street for $13.2 million. Wexner spent tens of millions of dollars in restoration, decoration and artwork to reconvert the 21,000 square foot mansion into a private home.
For the first time in half a century the magnificent French Renaissance mansion would be a home. Except Wexner never lived here. An advisor to the millionaire told The New York Times in 1996 that he spent no more than two months in the house.
Herbert Straus never had a chance to enjoy his glorious showplace. But after a long history of institutional use, it is unexpectedly a private family home today.

Home Sweet Elsewhere
WHAT is the latest status symbol of the ultra rich? A spectacular residence they purchase for millions, reconfigure with the world's leading architects and interior designers for even more millions, then elect not to live in.
Such is the fate of one of Manhattan's largest town houses, a majestic stone mansion at 9 East 71st Street. Possessing some 21,000 square feet, the house was recently the uninhabited domain of Leslie H. Wexner, the founding chairman of the Limited Inc., the retailing company.
Mr. Wexner bought the house in 1989 for $13.2 million and lavished tens of millions on renovations, art and furnishings. Those curious to see the princely accommodations Mr. Wexner abandoned need look no further than the cover of last month's Architectural Digest. When asked how long Mr. Wexner had occupied the property, Jeffrey Epstein, his protege and one of his financial advisers, replied, "Les never spent more than two months there." Thus the prorated cost of Mr. Wexner's sejours would appear to have been in excess of a million dollars a day.
Visitors described a bathroom reminiscent of James Bond movies: hidden beneath a stairway, lined with lead to provide shelter from attack and supplied with closed-circuit television screens and a telephone, both concealed in a cabinet beneath the sink. The house also has a heated sidewalk, a luxurious provision that explains why, while snow blankets the rest of the Eastern Seaboard, the Wexner house (and Bill Cosby's house across the street) remains opulently snow-free, much to the delight of neighborhood dogs.
The seven-story house was built by the society architect Horace Trumbauer in 1933 for Herbert N. Straus, an heir to the Macy's fortune, who died before it was completed. (Mr. Trumbauer also built Clarendon Court in Newport, R.I., the former home of Sunny and Claus von Bulow.) The Straus house later became a convalescent home and the Birch Wathen School, making Mr. Wexner the first private resident – or at least, the first private nonresident.
Continue reading the main story
Reached in Florida last week, Mr. Epstein said that the house was now his.
In New York, two other billionaires, David Geffen and Ronald O. Perelman – and an almost-billionaire, Steven P. Jobs – are also in the vanguard of this puzzling trend. And there are others.
Across the street from the Wexner house stands the balustraded neo-Renaissance house of Robert W. Miller, the duty-free-shop executive, and his wife, Chantal. Visitors describe the house as being resplendent with a collection of Old Master paintings and boulle furniture, including a Louis XIV desk whose twin is at Versailles. But the Millers choose to live on the 22d floor of the nearby Hotel Carlyle instead because Mrs. Miller prefers the view.
The magnificent Miller house, whose interior has been conjured by the Venetian designer Renzo Mongiardino, usually languishes unoccupied, though it is occasionally used by the Millers' daughter Marie-Chantal and her recent bridegroom, Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece.
Mr. Geffen, the entertainment executive, is currently selling the two town houses on East 64th Street that he purchased in 1994 with the intention of tearing them down. He commissioned three sets of plans – by the architects Charles Gwathmey and Richard Meier and by the interior designer Rose Tarlow – for a showpiece town house, but then changed his mind.
Mr. Geffen has also been playing cat-and-mouse with the famous Jack Warner house in Beverly Hills, Calif., which he bought in 1990 for $47.5 million. He at first decided not to move into it, Ms. Tarlow said, but has now decided he will use after all.
Although famously wealthy, Mr. Geffen appears content to divide his time primarily between a modest one-bedroom apartment on Fifth Avenue, which was overhauled by Mr. Gwathmey, and a small beach house in Malibu, Calif.

Harvard connects Epstein, Wexner, and Steyer
Though Epstein is not a Harvard alumnus or affiliate, he has a history of strong financial ties to the University.
In a 2003 profile, The Crimson reported that many of Epstein's friends described him as a "long-time, low-profile" donor.
In 1990, Epstein partnered with fellow billionaire Leslie H. Wexner to fund the construction of a new building at (((Harvard Hillel))) - Rosovsky Hall, named after former Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Henry Rosovsky, one of Epstein's oldest friends.

"I asked myself, around my 40th birthday, what would they say about you when you're gone?" Wexner said recently. "I came to the conclusion that what people say about you when you're gone doesn't matter. When you look in the mirror, are you seeing someone you'd like to meet, someone you're proud of?"

https:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wexner_Center_for_the_Arts
The $43 million Wexner Center, commissioned by Ohio State University, was named after the father of Leslie H. Wexner, chairman of Limited Brands, an Ohio native and Ohio State alumnus who pledged $25 million to the project.[2] Peter Eisenman won the design competition for the Wexner in 1983 over four other, more experienced finalists: Cesar Pelli; Michael Graves; Kallmann McKinnell & Wood; and Arthur Erickson. (Each was paired with a local architect.)[2] Progressive Architecture magazine devoted a whole issue to the building even before it was finished; architects like Philip Johnson, Richard Meier and Charles Gwathmey convened in Columbus to mark the building's completion with a public forum on the state of American architecture.[3]
FUN FACT During its three-year renovation between 2002 and 2005, the Wexner relocated its galleries in a former coffin factory two miles away, while the performing arts and film programs continued at the center. It typically drew 200,000 to 250,000 visitors a year before the renovation.[2] In November 2005, the Wexner Center reopened.

By 1992, Epstein was the official owner of the largest private residence in Manhattan.
In 1961, the mansion became home to the Birch Wathen School, which it remained until Leslie H. Wexner, the founding chairman of the Limited Inc., bought it in 1989 for $13,200,000. Wexner hired architect Thierry Despont and interior designer John Stefanidis to help gut the 40-room home, showing it off in the December 1995 issue of Architectural Digest (sadly, the magazine's online archives don't go back that far). In 1996, the New York Times referred to the sumptuously decorated, expensively renovated pied-à-terre as the latest "puzzling" "status symbol of the ultra rich," when it reported that Wexner never spent more than a few months in the home.
In 1995, Wexner turned the home over to Epstein, who was his protege and financial advisor because, on the face of it, his new wife "expressed greater enthusiasm for bringing up their two young children in Columbus, Ohio." Some say that Epstein paid just a dollar for the mansion.
Epstein then undertook his own renovation, not wanting "to live in another person's house." He is said to have spent $10,000,000 redoing the place. In 2007, when model Maximilia Cordero filed suit against Epstein for statutory rape and sexual assault (the suit was later dismissed), her lawyer included a description of what has by now become a legendary piece of decor chez Epstein: "[The] defendant gave plaintiff a tour of his mansion, showing her a huge crystal staircase with a huge crystal ball by the railing, ceiling chandeliers, a lounge room with red chairs, a statute [sic] of a dog with a statute [sic] of dog feces next to it."

Not surprisingly Gawker speculated on whether or not there was some sort of sexual relationship between Epstein and Wexler:
Monday's creepily gentle profile in the New York Times ( http://archive.is/nYlL5 ) suggested that Epstein charged annual fees upward of $25m a year for "superelite financial advice"- leading Portfolio's Felix Salmon to remark on the profitability of private banking. Bullshit. Epstein's wealth is built on a "bizarre relationship" with single acknowledged client, Abercrombie & Fitch creator Leslie Wexner, one of America's most successful retailers.
Now that loaded quote comes only from an unnamed Wall Street acquaintance of Epstein who spoke to New York magazine for a profile of the money manager in 2002. There is no evidence whatsoever that their relationship went beyond that of aide to mentor. Epstein is pretty obviously heterosexual, or else going to extreme lengths to prove the point. The Limited owner Wexner himself is married with four children. It's bizarre to imagine any romantic connection between two men who are now 70 and 55 years old, a right-wing Ohio tycoon and a sex offender.

Epstein's first mentor was Steven Jude Hoffenberg (convicted $400+ million Ponzi scheme)
Wexner was his second mentor
Epstein sociopathically talked him into full control of his money, complete with powers of attorney
Wexner's mother Bella fought back
These are all a bunch of frauds and scam artists, on top of being pedophiles, sex addicts
Worst humans on the planet

So a couple of days ago with all the hoo haa over Trump's Tony Podesta tweet, our attention was drawn to Leslie Wexner and the Nationwide Children's Hospice. This humanitarian also is the genius behind Victoria's Secrets. All roads lead back to NXIVM, Newtown and the New World Order. Let's take another peek into Agenda 21..
Abigail Wexner is a lawyer and philanthropist who serves on corporate and community boards, including Nationwide Children's Hospital. She's married to Leslie H. Wexner, founder, chairman and CEO of L Brands, the fashion retailer behind Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works, Pink and other stores.

Titanic connections, history as institutions, then back to private residence:
On February 3 of that year it was announced that a syndicate had purchased six houses along East 71st to be replaced by a $5 million apartment building. Among them was the Edward H. Van Ingen mansion at No. 9. The Van Ingens had owned the house for decades.
When the ambitious apartment building plan fell through and the property became available once again, Herbert Straus snatched it up. He commissioned architect Horace Trumbauer of Philadelphia to design a 40-room French Renaissance palace. A few other millionaires were building new mansions simultaneously-Virginia Graham Fair Vanderbilt, William Goadby Loew and George F. Baker, for instance.
It was a carefree time when money flowed freely and every common Joe played the stock market. But those times were about to come crashing down.
—
After 16 years in the Straus mansion, St. Clare's closed the doors on July 24, 1961. The building was purchased by the Birch Wathen School, a college preparatory day school for well-to-do boys and girls from kindergarten through grade 12.
The school would remain here for over two decades before moving uptown. In 1989 retail mogul Leslie H. Wexner, founder of The Limited purchased No. 9 East 71st Street for $13.2 million. Wexner spent tens of millions of dollars in restoration, decoration and artwork to reconvert the 21,000 square foot mansion into a private home.
For the first time in half a century the magnificent French Renaissance mansion would be a home. Except Wexner never lived here. An advisor to the millionaire told The New York Times in 1996 that he spent no more than two months in the house.
Herbert Straus never had a chance to enjoy his glorious showplace. But after a long history of institutional use, it is unexpectedly a private family home today.

EPSTEIN ACQUIRED HIS NY MANSION FROM Leslie Wexner, FOUNDER OF THE LIMITED (Ohio connection to Epstein - see graphic for donations from Epstein in Ohio to major political candidates)
"In 1961, the mansion became home to the Birch Wathen School, which it remained until Leslie H. Wexner, the founding chairman of the Limited Inc., bought it in 1989 for $13.2M. Wexner hired architect Thierry Despont and interior designer John Stefanidis to help gut-renovate the 40-room home, showing it off in the December 1995 issue of Architectural Digest (sadly, the magazine's online archives don't go back that far). In 1996, the New York Times referred to the sumptuously decorated, expensively renovated pied-à-terre as the latest "puzzling" "status symbol of the ultra rich," when it reported that Wexner never spent more than a few months in the home. This was back when the scarcely used pied-à-terre was a smaller part of the Manhattan real estate makeup.
In 2001, the New York Post reported that Epstein and Prince Andrew celebrated the registered sex offender's release from jail with a party at the mansion. Virginia Roberts, one of the litigants in a Florida lawsuit against Epstein's prosecutors, alleges that the second time she was coerced into having sex with prince Andrew was at Epstein's Manhattan mansion in 2001."

Les Wexner renounces Republican Party affiliation after Obama stops in Columbus
http://www.dispatcH.com/news/20180914/les-Wexner-renounces-republican-party-affiliation-after-obama-stops-in-columbus
After former Democratic President Barack Obama made a quiet stop in Columbus on Thursday night, the wealthiest Republican supporter in the state told a small audience at a Downtown event that he is fed up and has quit the Republican Party.
"I just decided I'm no longer a Republican," said L Brands CEO Leslie H. Wexner, speaking during a panel discussion about civility at Miranova's Ivory Room billed as a "Columbus Partnership and YPO Leadership Summit."
…"I haven't run an ad in the newspaper that said, 'I quit,'" he told the gathering on Thursday. Instead, he's been writing notes to his friends in elective office who are Republicans, telling them, "I want you to know that now I'm an independent."
The event was jointly sponsored by the Columbus Partnership, a group of central Ohio's most influential business leaders that Wexner chairs, and YPO (formerly Young Presidents' Organization), a group of under-45 business leaders.
Obama stopped in Columbus before a rally in Cleveland Thursday night to support Democrat Richard Cordray's run for governor.
The former president spoke on stage in Columbus with Alex Fischer, president and CEO of the Columbus Partnership, during a portion of the event that was closed to reporters.
The panel on which Wexner later spoke was moderated by political commentator David Gergen, a former adviser to presidents Nixon, Ford, Reagan and Clinton. Panelists also included Mayor Andrew J. Ginther and Nancy Kramer, chief evangelist at IBM iX. It was attended by approximately 140 people.
…Wexner spoke warmly about Obama and about the theme of bipartisan civility, something he has been promoting in recent months. "It's a great moment for the community," he said of Obama's rather secretive visit to Columbus before his Cleveland rally for Cordray. "I know he came here because of the Partnership and the things we have done, and the knowledge that civility is a priority for our community. He wanted to touch it and feel it for himself.
"I was struck by the genuineness of the man; his candor, humility and empathy for others," Wexner said of Obama.
Those comments presented a stark contrast to Wexner's comments about Republican President Donald Trump. A little over a year ago, the billionaire CEO said in a speech to L Brands employees that he felt "dirty" and "ashamed" following Trump's response to violence that erupted at the Unite the Right rally that left one dead in Charlottesville in 2017.
Trump had said there were "very fine people" among the white nationalist protesters at that rally. On Thursday, Wexner recalled that incident, which he said caused him to lose sleep. "I have to do something because the leader of our country is behaving poorly," Wexner recalled thinking.
During the past year, Wexner has poured money into bipartisan civility. In late 2017, he made a $300,000 donation to With Honor, a PAC that supports military veterans from both parties who are running for office and who agree to a pledge not only to conduct themselves with civility but also to meet one-on-one with a member of the opposing party once a montH. In February 2018, Abigail Wexner, a Democrat, followed up her husband's gift with a $2.5 million gift to With Honor…

You got my radar going since I worked for Limited back in the day, so,
More on Wexner: their life like the other 'elites'
Abigail:
- "Wexner married Abigail on December 20, 1993 when she was 31 years old and he was 55. Before marriage, she worked as a lawyer. Her father is Yehuda Koppel "
(MY those 4 children came fast for being in her 30's. And she looks fantastic. Just sayin'...)
- Children: 'raised to pursue social justice'
Her Father -KOPPEL:
IS THIS THE SAME Yehuda that opens El AL?
"fellow passengers with the Chertoffs. Passenger No. 29, for example, Yehuda Koppel. Koppel played an important role in the founding of the State of Israel as a leader in the HaganaH. In the 1950's, he moved to New York where he opened the first American office of El Al, Israel's national airline, and where he lived until his deatH."
- EL AL: only commercial airline equipped with missile defense system
- Haganah is another one of those secret societies & a Zionist military org.
THIS connection brings to CHERTOFF: mom worked for Mossad, Asst. Attorney General of the United States in charge of the Criminal Division of the Dept. of Justice, personally supervised and controlled the entire FBI non-investigation of 9-11
MUELLER reported to Chertoff

Wexner quote:
"The Jews are the canaries in the coal mines," "When Jews are picked on or isolated in any way, society better pay attention. An attack on Jews, on Judaism and on Israel is an attack on the fundamental morals of soiety"

ESTATE: British estate purchased 1997
Video of estate was removed. hmm
Chapel - hunting parties - yachts ....wonder if he has an island somewhere?
"He has built a giant hedge around Foxcote House to shield it from prying eyes."
"Very few people go into the house. They have shooting lunches but not in the house itself. They use the old converted Catholic chapel, which is attached to the house."
"For one or two weeks a year during the current shooting season, the helicopters fly in and the Range Rovers and the Land Rovers drive out."
YACHT: "what was then the world's largest private yacht."
PARTIES: "They fly people in from America to do the shooting. They fly in by private jet and then a huge helicopter. They are extremely nice but very, very private."
