The McMansion Next Door

I think the central point of this essay is to say how everything has design but something that is untouched are houses. It also talks about how houses are getting bigger and families are still staying about the same size and how whole nieghboorhoods are the same house over and over again. Some evidence used is it says that last years annual report for Pulte homes says that if you adjust for inflation, that houses of the same size and comparable features is the same price as it was in the 1970s. I would agree with the essay in that I agree that houses are seeing less design and just getting bigger and bigger and that people would pay more up front to say they got a mansion.
