Great. If you had your way, we’d all be living in log cabins from civil war days. I bet it cost more to fix the house then tear it down and start over. Plus, since the build, hurricane standards have increased and he may want to upgrade due to that.
Looks like an office building. Not homey at all.
I don't know what Rush and Kathryn decided on the fate of that property but she had the authority to turn it into a national historical monument or landmark. I guess she needed the $155m.
idiot could have turned it into a museum and earned bank for eternity on it.
Oh well.
William Lauder’s Uncle Ron was the Austrian Ambassador that issued Jeffrey Epstein an Austrian Passport under an assumed name. I’m guessing Rush wouldn’t be too happy about his former home site falling into that family’s hands.
Sacred Grounds! No building allowed!
I’d put the large house totally underground.
...or more likely the proceeds of the sale go to various family members. There is no shortage of people who would have asked Rush for a piece of the pie.
Communists seek to erase history.
My parents had a lakefront “estate” in Vermont. There were six homes on their street.
Since 2010, they have all been demolished or completely gutted.
When you pay that much, it isn’t for a 100 year old home. It’s for the view.
This happens every day, all over the world.
“I personally would rather have a lot of land than a lot of house.”
Yup, if I had to have one or the other, that would be my choice, as well. I can always build a house on the land; but I can’t build land on the house.
I miss Rushbo. Heard “My City Was Gone” today on xm classic rewind. When the song started (Rush’s bumper music) I had a flashback.
Rush is long gone
I assume this is an Estee Lauder son?
No.
I had the highest regards for Rush, he was a one in 10 billion but his memory will fade just like all of us.
The novelty of seeing Rush’s house probably wouldn’t last a year or two.
He was a political animal.
Politics keep no one forever.
Rush himself knew once he couldn’t comment on the day to day his time was over.
Again Rush is one of my most cherished personalities but life is a cruel mistress.
Once somebody buys the land, it is theirs to do as they wish. I have nothing to say about somebody who buys the land and throws up apartments or something. It’s their land.
honestly, if it was done right I would have visited his home if I were in the area.
People travel from all over the world to shop at the silos here in Waco, which is just like an isle of hobby lobby, because of nothing more than the fact that it was started by the couple from HGTV fixer upper.
