[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The “McMansion Hell” blogger/writer has lots of genuinely good articles on how to identify mansion vs McMansion (square footage is irrelevant but there are many distinctions between the two)[/quote] Square footage is absolutely relevant. There are different measures of square footage depending on location. Legit mansions in NYC, Charleston, and other brownstone-esque city mansions couldn't possibly have 20k+, so they are evaluated differently. [/quote] Lol sweetie. No. [b]This house would be a McMansion at 6k, 16k or 60k square feet. The roofline alone is textbook McMansion, as are the fake (non-structural) interior columns, bad windows, lack of mature landscaping and so very much more.[/b] [/quote] It's a "mansion" built for the Sopranos whose taste never left Queens. It has all the hallmarks of a tacky McMansion, but SUPERSIZE it. It's enormous, but nothing about it looks nice. [/quote]
