And the sad part about it........the house isn't even in good taste. Instead, it has the smell of the last years of Rome. I suspect its a good deal worse than that. Most the McMansions are built out of crap material, the looks are only skin deep. At least the Romans built out of material that lasted 100's to 1000's of years. It will be interesting to see what happens when lots of these monstrosities are 30-40 years old, the exteriors are weathering badly, they have termites & dry rot, and the chinese sheetrock has fallen into a stinking heap. Think anyone would remodel them?
