[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But if you have money to throw you are employing people but using up more land thereby effecting stormwater run-off.  That is an issue with development as we Houstonize ourselves.  It's an issue in great Falls especially on lower Walker Road.[/quote]

We have family back in the midwest.

There is a great neighborhood there of nice, normal sized homes on appropriately sized for the size of the house lots that has never ever flooded, in spite of being in an area that gets a ton of rain and neighborhoods which are a few miles from a small river.

Last year they had a ton of rain, and those houses which had never flooded, along with several streets that never flooded, got completely flooded out, with sveral feet of water in the houses.

The reason?  All the new giant McMansions built on too small of lots, plus the new shopping center developments built on built up floodplains.

These giant homes on too small of land are awful.

However, OP one must really consider the impact to the eye when one builds such a grand estate.  My vote is a 22 foot foy yay, and a chandalier of no fewer than 22 lightbulbs to represent each beautiful foot of ceiling height.  One can not be too common when one is making a home building statement.[/quote]
