Energy efficient[edit]

> "Perry demolished the home to build a more energy-efficient and sustainable residence"

Yeah sure. Since most CO2 emissions are in the construction of a building it would have been more energy efficient to re-purpose it for something else. The energy upkeep would have been trivial by comparison vs demolishing and wasting the original CO2 outlay. Not that any super rich are thinking about their outside negative impacts on the environment. -- GreenC 16:31, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced assertions[edit]

The following was added by an IP user. It's unsourced but maybe some truth if anyone can find sources to verify:

No, Perry Sold Out to the Developer, Lennar. Lennar then destroyed the mansion and razed the gardens and the land. Apparently the financials aren't working out for what would be another new subdivision so Lennar stopped construction and the property now sits bare. The City of Johns Creek residents were sickened by the original sale of the property from Perry selling out to the developer. The residents were further sickened by the City council's decision to approve the zoning of 70 new homes and destroy the historic landmark mansion and beautiful gardens. The city went on to spend over 20 million on another park space. This property was purchased by Perry fo 7.6 million (Dean estate was once offered at high end of 40 million), then Perry sold it to developer for 9.2 million to effectively burn the residents of Johns Creek who appreciated the historic lamdmark and greenspace.
