That house was truly amazing. Marble flooring throughout, custom marble tub in the daughter's bathroom. Granite counter tops everywhere. $100k worth of all brass door knobs and hinges. 8'x 8' 1 ton safe door salvaged from a bank in Idaho. Gold leaf on a fire pole in one of the kid's bedrooms. Miles and miles of custom floor and ceiling trim work. It's a tragedy that it was destroyed - what a waste. It is somewhat ironic, however, that it was torn down, as recently the guy who built it just plead guilty to federal fraud and racketeering charges. <br /><br />Clint C.Clint Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4927941673018447874.post-81280422448666938932017-03-20T22:10:36.243-07:002017-03-20T22:10:36.243-07:00I worked as a painter on the mansion that was buil...I worked as a painter on the mansion that was built in 86 and 87. It was a fabulous place with no expenses spared built by Roger Montgomery and designed by Vasos Demetrious. Vasos also designed and lived in the modern house across the street. IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE CRIME THAT HOUSE WAS DESTROYED. Effing nouveau riche and their endless need of greed and one upsmanship.
