According to AOL's Weird News in the Neighborhood, the Chicago house and glass pavilion made famous in the 1980's movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" could be demolished if some have their way.
Rose House, located in Chicago's Highland Park neighborhood, now tops the Landmarks Illinois' list of significant historical homes in danger of being "demolished or substantial alteration," according to a story in the Chicago Tribune. The house is on the market for $2.3 million, but several possible buyers have inquired about tearing it down and dividing up the land.
The 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom house with the pavilion cantilevered over the ravine can't be duplicated; shortly after the movie scene featuring a Ferrari crashing through the glass wall, Highland Park officials refused to let any more cantilevered homes to be built.
