    That darn 210 extension! It really caused a lot of problem.
    I’m glad that the Maloof house survived.
    I grew up in that area and so many of my friend’s homes were built in the 210 freeway path.
    Thanks for sharing👍🏻

    From the outside it looks like a crazy cult compound in that first shot, but the interiors are lovely and natural.

    Ken, thank you for sharing this incredible story with us! I have enjoyed using the I210 extension but freeways destroy or change a lot of the people’s lives that were in it’s path. These people’s creation was saved because they had the money and the connections to save theirs from the wrecking ball.

    Yes, and we all know just what havoc California's freeway system wreaked on absolutely everything. Money and greed get their way every time. How the Maloofs kept going after such a devastating blow is amazing.

    While I can appreciate the design and labor put into building this house, I find it to be a jumbled, cluttered mess. My favorite room in this house was the tiled bathroom because of its simplistic design.

    Hi Ken, I love your presentations and watch often. But please stop using “simplistic” when you mean “simple” or “basic.” Simplistic means overly simplified and its a sort of put-down. Too many people make the same error.
