Yeah, it's better. Modest, but better suited to the scale of the neighborhood.

looks good to me except I would've liked a 2 car garage in the front or side. THe original houses were truely pathetic.


Really? This looks good to you. Long rows of siding in every direction filling up the whole lot. You have absolutely no taste.

That house looks like paradise. Who am I to begrudge the rich for wanting suburban amenities and the cachet of a DC address?

I've seen some new houses with stone and hardiplan that are quite attractive, but the proportions seem totally off here. That house certainly won't improve the aesthetics of Palisades.

It's a shame when a cute bungalow gets torn down, but some of the houses on streets like Sherier Place are shacks.

Yes the answer is a historic district and HOA.

If the homes they were replacing were nicer, Palisades would have been declared a historic district and/or the costs of a teardown would be prohibitive. Neither appears to be the case, so get used to it.

Yes. Tacky houses are taking over the Palisades.

I see more McMansions being built on the West side of Arizona and all the nice old character homes are being torn down and replaced by these gaudy new money homes.
