You would think HGTV would make the appliances work just to keep from being embarrassed when they sold it.

I’ve driven past a few of those just because I was there like Mrs. Doubtfire & Full House.

Sex & the City was an accident. We were walking along in NYC and there were studio lights set up on the block we were walking down. When we got up to it, Parker and Corbit were getting filmed doing a scene. You trip over places like Friends and Tiffany’s in NYC all the time.

I’ve been to a bunch of other places they’ve filmed at too like Blade Runner, Batman, Mission Impossible, Ferris, Blues Bros, and a lot more.
 
More than 20 movies have been filmed in Astoria, Oregon, beginning in 1937 with Roaring Timber. Teri and I visited Astoria in 2003. She waited on the ground while I ran to the top of the 125-foot-tall Astoria Column. She was impressed by my speed and stamina. Then we visited the house and the marina where parts of Free Willy were filmed and we saw the house featured in The Goonies. There were "No trespassing" signs at the Goonies house then – but a Kansas City couple bought the house in January 2023 and they're welcoming fans to visit. Yay!

Mister Hectic will be thrilled to learn that Thomas Fulljames, the architect who designed the Foscombe House, also designed St. Matthew's Parish Church in Twigworth, the Church of St. Luke in High Orchard and an insane asylum in Denbigh, Wales.

A years-long back-and-forth over the ownership of the house preceded the overhaul project. The question was resolved in 2017 when Austria’s highest court ruled that the government was within its rights to expropriate the building after its owner refused to sell it.

Won't let us have it? We'll just take it. Like Hitler would do.
 
This church was designed by Leopold Eidlitz (1823-1908). who also designed St. Peter's Church in the Bronx and P.T. Barnum's home in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Eidlitz was one of 13 architects who founded the American Institute of Architects in 1857 in New York City.

I did the math. Well.....to be honest, I used a calculator. Anyone who might want to save enough money in a year to be able to buy this house would have to set aside $808,219.18 per day – but because 2024 is a leap year, that one extra day reduces the amount to $806,010.93 per day. Wooh!
