So, did the 8.5 mil demo on Willowick now give cover to all the other RO residents to blow up their houses? This one is only 3.5 mil-ish: http://www.har.com/HomeValue/2454-Pine-Valley-Ct-Houston-TX-77019-M97016644.htm, so it really seems like a shotgun shack in comparison. I can certainly understand how a 1930s classic mansion of a mere 4000 sq feet is incompatible with the lifestyle of todays modern bizzillionaire and must be torn down.
Unbelievable. That Pine Valley house was a classic beauty and very well loved. More money than sense.
Hopefully, some of those features will end up at Habitat ReStore. The marble counters, doors, clawfoot tub, cabinet doors, and all that flagstone. The casement windows are great for a greenhouse or playhouse. And that angle-top door in the attic room would be a great door for a garden shed or chicken house.
I saw parts of some of the other teardowns there about 2 months ago. I remember seeing the stainless steel countertop, marble, and custom bathroom cabinets from one teardown.
I may have to check back to see if that angle-top door makes it to the ReStore. I’ll design a shed just around that door.
Thats just crazy.
But mold.
I go by the pictured house every day on my way to work. It’s a beauty. Sad to see it go!
Mindless. Cannot even imagine what is going to take its place to justify such an expensive teardown… gotta be another offensive lot-hugger.
I always went out of my way to drive down Pine Valley. Lovely homes. Nouveau riche know no shame.
What a shame.
