[right way right]

Is this property sacred or something?

lol.

[PA-RIVER]

It may well be the richest neighborhood on the planet. And eventually every house gets put into a dumpster.

A lot of these custom made mansions are hard to sell. Micheal Jordan’s mansion in Illinois has been on the market for years.

Please provide proof that he favored Rubio over Trump. Because Rush normally did not publicize his views during primaries.

It does amaze me sometimes how people have so much money — and I’m not talking about multimillionaires, but maybe upper middle class — that they can buy a lovely home but feel the need to completely renovate it. In my family, we buy a house to live in as designed and are happy that we can afford a house.

The palm tree threw me off.

I don’t think it survived long term.

How can you dance with square feet?

Exactly where does Rush endorse Rubio? I could not find it. Was he positive towards Rubio? Sure. But it is a stretch to take that as an endorsement in a primary.

Spot on.

In Palm Beach, you buy the location, not the house.

I thing the issue is more public buildings. The hideous replacements post WW2 from previous buildings was the greatest source of architectural destruction.

I can understand why it was the case in Europe, where you had to quickly replace all the buildings and housing lost due to the war, but why here?

[Reverend Wright]

This site has had a number of threads about global trends in architecture, and why they seem to be converging.

Elites choose building designs and architectural styles. The design choices represent what is aspirational for those elites.

When you have public buildings which are huge, ugly and demoralizing, it reflects, in my view, the aspirational agenda of the elites to reduce the populations they rule to insignificant scale compared to elite created monstrous inhuman structures.

Hitler's vision of "Germania" (Berlin) after the Nazis won the war.

[Reverend Wright]

The interesting thing is that the model city of a totalitarian dictator is on a more human scale than what one sees in the most densely packed cities.

I know! Beautiful house as it is now. Of course the new owner can do what he wishes with it though.

Just sad… I miss Rush Limbaugh SO much. 😢

[nutmeg]

Thank you! So we don’t have to join / re-join Rush 24/7? Or Clay and Buck 24/7 or whatever it’s called?

Clay and Buck have been an AWFUL “replacement” for Rush, in my opinion.

[Drago]

Yeah, not a primary endorsement, (did Rush endorse anybody for the 2016 primary?)....just posted that to indicate that Rush didn’t think Rubio was some “Deep State Actor”/”RINO-Establishment” or something.

[DennisR]

I doubt it, because he normally stayed out of the primary stuff.
