It was built in 1705 as a private residence for the Duke of Buckingham. The title Duke of Buckingham was created in 1444 but became extinct after the execution of the 3rd Duke in 1521 (my guess is that's who you are referencing in your question). It was recreated in 1623 and a few more times after that.

Buckingham Palace was finished just prior to Queen Victoria's rein. Due to this fact, it was built mostly by hand using methods of the time. There would have been approximately 300 men working on it in total. A handful would be skilled labourer's, such as masons, clockwork masons, rederers, stone workers, and stained glass makers. These along with pre-Victorian architechs and regular labourer's the job took 7 years to build. :D Hope this helps. For futher information on the Palace try its website. Just type Buckingham Palace into google.

Buckingham Palace is owned by the "Queen in right of the Crown". Meaning that she doesn't own it as a private person but rather as the personification of the crown. As long as the monarchy remains, the palace will be owned by the sovereign, but he or she doesn't have the right to sell it. The Duke of Westminster owns a lot of land in London but Buckingham Palace is not one of them. Technically the Queen owns more of London than any one, through the Crown Estates, Royal Parks, Royal Palaces and the Duchy of Lancaster, but once again she doesn't have the right to sell any of these as a private individual.
