Botched House Construction Forces Couple To Tear Down $150K Worth Of Building To Make Room For A Pool

What's a little thing like $150,000 when a pool is on the line? A couple in the Hamptons on Long Island, N.Y. went on vacation while their new house was being built, and weren't too happy when they came back to find it had been situated too far away from the curb. Not because they looove watching street traffic, but because that left no room in the back back the pool that was planned for the house. So they had it torn down to rebuild from scratch.

Houses just don't get put in the wrong place very often. There are surveys and site plans to approve before the permit is even issued. And then the foundation is layed out by a professional surveyor to within 1/100 of an inch. Or you can just blame the builder.

Hmmm guess the profession of this couple. My bet is he is a Wall Street banker. Any guesses?
