"I live in a 1925 stone house with a red tile roof," writes a visitor to our Discussion Forum. "It was built for Charles Costello -- a bootlegger from the Kansas City area. Mr. Costello was from Italy and brought his family stone masons to the United States to construct the home for him. " Have you seen other houses like this one?
