The Dean Mansion

I like the idea of looking at massive, out-of-place buildings - so here's another!


















This mansion is considered a wonder of the modern mansions around the world. While driving around on spring break, near my hometown of Norcross, GA, my family and I passed this monstrosity. To the left and right there are normal homes, maybe $400,000 a piece, where this home runs for $30,000,000! With the 60+ acres of land the house takes up 32,000 square feet. What happened to the rest of the land? There is a private 18-hole golf course in the back yard. This, I consider, to be out of place in the South, or at least compared to the surrounding ten+ miles of housing. If you have the money to live like a king, why not do it I suppose? Living in the European countryside in the suburbs of Atlanta, the best get away.
