As news of Steve Miller's $16.8 million-dollar listing in Friday Harbor has been making the rounds recently, it's brought a renewed interest to the San Juan Islands. Perhaps what newcomers might find most intriguing is the realization that it's not even the most expensive listing on the island right now. Nor is it the second most-expensive either. With that in mind, we thought it might be a good time to check in with the islands to see what's at the top of the market these days. There's a lot of places we've written about before, even going back a couple of years. You've got islands (Trump Island, which is not named for who you think it's named for). You've got starchitects (George Suyama). You've got acreage (one property is 233 acres!). Check'm out.
