[quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone is upset that tear downs happen. It's the cookie cutter aspect. If everyone was building a unique, well thought out custom home people would not be upset. But oddly "custom" homes all look awful and the same? I don't have money to build a custom home so maybe someone can explain it to me. Take some of the custom homes in 22207. People spend so much money building a custom home yet it still looks like a cookie cutter home. Maybe they are using the builder to design and not architects? It is like they are too scared to fully commit to modern so they end up with a hodge podge. You also often end up with homes awkwardly situated on the lot, no curb appeal whatsoever. Yes I'm jealous of the size, but if I had that much money maybe I would build a large Victorian with a wrap around porch, turret, cute well thought out garden, or something like that.[/quote]
