Just curious. Saw this posted on a few other cities' forums.

I would want a home in the Hollywood Hills, a penthouse in the Park Fifth, and a beach-front home in Manhattan Beach or on the Venice canals or on Naples Island or on an island in Newport Bay.

Wow. I better become the future Donald Trump. LOL.

I can be kinda thrifty. But I'd still be in the heart of Hollywood and close to pub trans!

same place. i dont like the westside into / out of traffic thing. and mountain homes usually burn. so i would build a taller apartment near my current home so i can have a view. along with that create a spur elevated rail to my building that then ties into ither the gold line or downtown so i dont have to drive to work. because even if i made a million dollars. i would still go to work to keep from going insane in my san gabriel highrise

Since people are posting places outside of CA, which I forgot to mention, I'll add a penthouse on Miami Beach, a penthouse in some high rise in Honolulu, Rome and/or Venice, Italy, penthouse of Chicago Spire, penthouse in Lower Manhattan, classic brownstone in Boston, somewhere in Tel Aviv, somewhere in Gold Coast and/or Perth and/or Sydney, Australia, and Tahiti.

In LA:

A loft in the Roosevelt
The penthouse unit in Mercury (Koreatown)
A house on the edge of a hill in Silverlake
A apartment near Century City
A apartment in Venice

Outside of LA

A apartment in NYC, San Francisco, Atlanta, Philadelphia, London, Paris, Tokyo and Sydney. I love cities with culture.

Btw..I hate houses. Apartments or condos for me.
