Kunstler: Chatting With Kate Wagner of McMansion Hell dot Com
Today I’m yakking with Kate Wagner, the antic voice behind the marvelous website Welcome to MacMansion Hell, a humorous and opinionated blog that aims to educate the general public about architecture, design, and urbanism by making examples of America’s most despised architectural style. She is currently a master’s student in Acoustics as part of a joint venture program between Johns Hopkins University and Peabody Conservatory. Merry Christmas to all!

A Christmas Orphan
Ho ho ho! It’s that time of year again. Here’s JHK’s holiday classic: A Christmas Orphan.
11-year-old Jeff Greenaway hears his mom and dad argue one night after an office Christmas party. He infers from their garbled exchange that he is an orphan, found in a willow basket on the welcome mat outside their New York apartment. Thinking now that his parents are imposters, he steals away to Grand Central Station and buys a train ticket to Drakesville, Vermont, where he intends to start life all over again.

Now that’s a good idea for a website.
Gonna check that out.
Nowadays a McMansion is a 3500 square foot crackerbox, on a 2500 square foot lot. And probably no roof eaves, other than what’s painted on with multiple colors.
Month anks, find a nice big house in an old neighborhood. On a big lot. With big eaves. Big setback. Big driveway. Something from the 70’s or 80’s.
