I think the day will come when McMansions will house 2 or 3 families, not just one. Or one family and their single relatives and friends. Heck, that day may already be here...

I'll bet a lot of them get knocked down. So many were cheaply built to begin with.

Recently on a cross-country trek I drove through the suburbs outside Denver, an area that experienced a huge housing boom in the 1990s. I was awestruck by many of the gaudy, enormous homes packed together by the seemingly hundreds of thousands and wondered who could afford to live in them these days. Who could afford to heat them in the winter and cool them in the summer? Sure, there's still a lot of people doing well but these gigantic homes were everywhere! Really, a reminder of an era now gone when they were selling these palaces as fast as they could hammer them up to buyers waiting in line who planned for the values to rise and rise.

There is a McMansion in our family that contains three single adults and three married couples.
