New aerial pics show Kim Kardashian’s $6m Palm Springs plot is an icky eyesore as spaceship mansion construction delayed

NEW aerial pictures have shown Kim Kardashian’s $6m Palm Springs plot is an icky eyesore, as her spaceship mansion construction is delayed. 

Kim, 44, bought land in La Quinta with her now ex-husband Kanye West for $6,300,000 in 2019.

She won the property in their divorce and the land was transferred to her sole trust in 2023. 

The U.S. Sun reported The Kardashians star filed a new permit for the land on October 28, 2024 after building issues.  

But new aerial images show the land is drying out, despite Kim’s plans to build a spaceship-shaped designer home.

Kim’s plans to build the Tadao Ando-designed property have been beset by a myriad of problems since it was revealed in 2021.

In February, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed there had been yet another setback in building on the land.

According to three La Quinta building permits dated January 29, 2025, the Initial Review and Fees Paid as of January 30, 2025 was listed as “not passed.”

One of the plans for “dust mitigation” had unpaid fees in the amount of $752.70. 

The second plan was for “erosion control” and had fees due in the amount of $2,266.35.

The final plan was for “precise grading plans for a custom home” with $2,280.45 in unpaid fees.

This brought the total cost in fees to $5,299.50, and Kim had until March 1, 2025 to pay the fees.

As The U.S. Sun reported, the Building Residential Permit covers “new dwellings, additions, remodels, carports and garages,” according to the City of La Quinta.

According to the permit, the single-family residence will be 20,310 square feet, feature seven bedrooms, a pool and a spa. 

Construction for the one-story home was initially thought to set the Skims founder back $8 million, but an updated amount was adjusted to $2,137,903, according to the permit. 

The first Building Major Review on December 6, 2024 was not passed, and a new one was scheduled for February 10. 

She purchased her dream 3-acre waterfront property in 2022 and has reportedly spent thousands of dollars renovating it in the past two years.

Kim, 44, previously gave her sister Khloe a walkthrough of her stunning oasis, which was documented on their Hulu series, The Kardashians.

In a confessional interview, she revealed that she’d found her “dream” home and detailed the emotional moment she closed the deal.

Supermodel Cindy Crawford, 57, and her husband, Rande Gerber, 60, previously owned the lavish property.
