Why preserve? Tear it down!

Looks terrible... better demolish it.

Well, it is Florida after all.

Sometimes I laugh at what the ultra-rich call "livable". The place looks perfectly livable as-is, though one can see where work is needed. To me, the most offensive trait of the house is that it was infected with 1970s and 1980s cheesy-ness in a lot of areas.

If they wreck it, I at least hope they get a crew in there to salvage the wood, stained glass, and tiles at a minimum.

Hard to believe those are all photos of the same house. Some of that is so garish.

Also hard to believe the same man who invented a plain and boring breakfast designed to kill sexual desire also owned such a gaudy house, including a leopard print elevator .
