Guanabara State to Buy U S Mansion in Rio for 2 Million
Guanabara State says it will purchase the former U.S. ambassadorial mansion in Rio de Janeiro for 2 million dollars to house the state tourism office and host cultural activities. The move follows a Supreme Court setback over a lower price. The mansion overlooks Christ statue on Corcovado Mountain, and the property includes 14 acres. The U.S. government had put the building up for sale after ambassadors shifted to Brasilia. West Germany had proposed a 2 million dollar purchase for a school but must seek other options. The dispute centered on an old 19th century decree asserting Guanabara’s first option on the estate. The United States had not authorized a sale at 1 million dollars, per consular officials.
