See it in action
  • “SRV and Clapton are blues music for people who own a mcmansion that has a 3-car garage, and the doors like barn doors. they can have that; i'm fine with Bonnie Raitt's first few albums and a wood-paneled basement.”

  • “An old home where I grew up had a massive collection on antiques. Electrical fire took it out. They rebuilt a McMansion in its place with a 3 or 4 car garage. Lovely old home replaced with a beast.”

Twenty mansions were planned for the development, each designed to look like the biggest house in town. The McMansion we thought of as ours had an enormous kitchen, more than two stories high.
