Atlanta developer has his own house on the market- it's a replica of the White House.

I can't remember which "Times" I read the story on, but, the world's fifth richest man is building a 27 story home for himself. He is Indian. Made his fortune the old fashioned way: his father was rich.

Used to drive by it regularly on the way to work. First time or two it catches your eye! After awhile I didn't even notice it anymore.
