And, it at least used to be a rule of home buying that it is smarter to buy a modest home in a pricey neighborhood than vice versa, as it has more upside potential. So everyone around ought to be applauding this guy given our perilously weak market.

His attorney, Jerold B. Neuman, complained to planners that after Schubert received the permit to build the bridge 18 separate city inspections occurred "and no one raised an issue" signaling any problem with its legality. Sounds like its all about politics.

Time to put that award winning design team back to work. Shirley they can come up with something so bizarre that the bridge will seem like a work of art in comparison, and result in bridge approval. Something green, hmmm, a 400 foot telescoping windmill, that doubles as a tv antenna? It shouldn’t be too much trouble to come up with something. Maybe the Maginot Line look, with tank traps and real operational gun emplacements to take out the neighbors Prius’s as they coast down hill past his place.

LOL...I understood exactly what you were saying. Actually surprised myself that I did so once I thought about it.
I think this is absolutely beautiful - both the car and his home. Good for him!
I seem to remember the architectural piece about this guy a year or two ago. Another guy had a huge underground, well under his house, garage loaded with sharp cars also. Stunning!

“looks alot like DeLorean.”
I have a 1981 Delorean and can accurately attest that you are 110% correct with the exception of the horse power and the autopilot. The DeLorean always wanted to follow the “white Line”.
My car, now in the posession of my son, was autographed by John on the underside of the ash tray along with names and addresses of the final assemblers in Ireland. Kinda Unique in my opinion. I met him at a car show in philly in 98. He was driving a dog ugly yellow NSX. I also drove to the show with my 1991 “Silver Bullet” NSX that is now stored in a heated garage. I don;t do Coke or run around with starlets.
