Being on one of my bicycle routes, I watched it throughout construction. Walls are ICF, poured concrete. All the windows and doors have retraceable storm shutters (see link). I thought the owner might just be building a house to protect fine art or something, but given the frequency with which I see the shutters drawn, regardless of weather conditions, I've started to believe he may be a surviving relative of Howard Hughes. http://www.icfconstructors.com/images/West_University.jpg The picture of the last house - faux stone exterior, window covers - is an interesting one.
