*OT* - Heiress's home is(will be) made from old 747 plane parts
I read an article about the plan posted back in 2005 so it did indeed
take a bit for approval. Full story: http://www.montereyherald.com/state/ci_9716682 Snip: ========= MALIBU — There's already a house in the neighborhood that scientists say looks sort of like a giant atom smasher. A few miles away, in the Hollywood Hills, there's one perched on a long, cylindrical tower that looks more like a flying saucer on its way to Grauman's Chinese Theatre than somebody's palatial abode. But when Francie Rehwald moves into her new digs sometime next year, she will have them both beat. She will be the only person on her block living in a house built from the recycled parts of an old Boeing 747 jet airliner. On Thursday, after more than a year of delays, Rehwald's dream finally began to take off when a giant helicopter appeared on the horizon with one half of one of her future house's wings dangling from a wire beneath the copter's red-and-white belly. ========= |
