[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom Line: If you hire this spiteful angry control freak, you deserve each other![/quote] Perhaps. But I think the neighbor did something to aggravate the builder. Didn't the neighbor know who he was dealing with? [/quote] Did you read the article? They hired a different contractor to renovate and swapped the kitchen and dining rooms. The neighbor built the house and was pissed so put up the wall right outside the window. [/quote] And most of the posters here haven't bothered to read the back story or know the two protagonists. Neither side is all right and neither side is all wrong. The architect had this vision of a wonderful shared space. He lived it, breathed it, built it. The family that bought in to the shared space concept house did it because they got a lot bigger house than they could normally afford in that area -because- it was shared space. A lot of folks looked and then walked away. Anyway, this family that did buy in then proceeded to do what they could to work against the shared space concept at every turn from the beginning. Very passive aggressive actions and lots of snide asides to the neighbors/neighborhood. And with the tree/plantings issue and then the kitchen space, the architect and dreamer of the shared space concept seems to have lost it. Bottom line: they shouldn't have bought in if they didn't go with the concept and the architect should not have been so offended that his actions, while legal, might have caused him great embarrassment.
