I sure hope so... I'm so tired of faux-victorian and faux-georgian clown boxes popping up everywhere... Or whatever you call that McMansion style with the 2 car garage as the main feature... There's plenty of places to get that 50's style for the insode ofyour house... now ite time to get the new houses looking swank on the outside. Damn!
