Seem familiar? This 1952 mod appeared in the HBO boob-job exposé Breast Men, starring David Schwimmer as Houston’s early-’60s boob pioneer Dr. Kevin Saunders. Or maybe that two-faced fireplace sparks your memory: Last July, the 4-bedroom, 3,558-sq.-ft. home was listed for sale at $1.1 million. (It was the one with the bomb shelter underneath the patio?) Well, in December it was sold for an even $1 million. And it showed up in today’s Daily Demolition Report.
Why not take one last peek, before it goes?

A million bucks for an empty lot, albeit a 15k SF lot, in Tanglewood. All I can say is WOW.
How else would one differentiate oneself from the Plebeian Peasantry Proletariat? The price of the land says “You have to be THIS tall to ride THIS ride”.
must be a really swanky bomb shelter
Indeed, a true conspicuous consumer would buy the land, tear down the house, and never build anything on it. That would show folks he’s got money to blow!
Too young and pretty to die. Sob.
Houston….smh.
Nearly five years later, and this home is still standing!
