Great article. This situation happened to my great aunt and her sons basically had to tear the door down and threaten violence to get the people out who were taking advantage of her money.

I have to respect the spirit the designed the place. Pity how it is turning out.

Wait people think this house is ugly? It’s the only house in HP I actually like looking at lol

My first thought was that this was Action Button's Tim Rogers, and was very confused (but very intrigued) about why a video games journalist (living in Brooklyn iirc) who makes incredibly in-depth video essays would be writing about an eccentric house in Dallas.

Regardless, that was an interesting article.

There exterior used to be so shocking, but now not so much. The interior is still exquisitely hideous. You can’t help but admire the effort it must have taken to craft that kind of ugly. It’s impressive.

I personally don't care for this house at all but I would be lying if I said I wasn't envious and almost respecting of someone one with enough money to build it on one of the most desirable pieces of land in highland park just saying, fuck it, I want to live in this ungodly expensive, "ugly" home.
