For many years (ten now, about which, more soon) McMansion Hell has featured many prominent and diverse atrocities from all over these great United States and sometimes beyond them. However, most of these posts have consisted of houses built during the McMansion Era proper – from the 80s up through around the early 2010s. This is for a number of reasons. First of all: I… ## [mctuscan heaven](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/809937203073581056) _2026-03-02 · McMansion Hell_ Howdy folks, I have some good news, which is that, after seven months, I’ve finally recovered from Long Covid. This is not something I particularly want to talk about in depth but it was the worst thing that ever happened to me! Anyway, sorry for the long period without posting that much, but I hope this amazing house (both laudatory/derogatory, that’s dialectics, baby) will make up… ## [for patreon i wrote about getting stranded in tomorrowland as an 8th grader, michael sorkin’s…](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/803205249060028417) _2025-12-17 · McMansion Hell_ “See You in Disneyland” | McMansion Hell for patreon i wrote about getting stranded in tomorrowland as an 8th grader, michael sorkin’s classic essay “see you in disneyland” and the legacy of 1990s disneyfied architecture and urbanism today ## [chud atlantis](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/800217589248819200) _2025-11-14 · McMansion Hell_ Hello everyone, sorry to go so long without posting something. I caught covid in August and it’s taken me months to start feeling relatively back to normal. I am still struggling with fatigue and some neurological problems, so thank you for your patience! It is rare that the McMansion ever approaches the mythical, though it is, of coursed, steeped in its own mythology – of… ## [For Patreon, I wrote about developer slop flooring, the history of walking on plastic, and what fake…](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/787998913021034496) _2025-07-02 · McMansion Hell_ we are living at the nadir of flooring: an essay | McMansion Hell For Patreon, I wrote about developer slop flooring, the history of walking on plastic, and what fake floors say about the world we live and build in. ## [glam metal modern but also your contractor is going to jail dawg](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/786837306426507264) _2025-06-20 · McMansion Hell_ Sometimes a house is so ugly, disgust boomerangs back into a form of respect. This is a rare phenomenon, one which should be treated seriously. I’ve been looking at ugly houses professionally for almost a decade now and I can say with confidence that there are only a handful of true goose eggs that meet the mark. This house – this remarkable, revolting house – located, of all… ## [FYI, this post is now available for all to read!](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/786540880109699072) _2025-06-16 · McMansion Hell_ mcmansionhell : Bonus Post: The McMansionization of the White House, or: Regional Car Dealership Rococo, a treatise The McMansionization of the White House, or: Regional Car Dealership Rococo: a treatise | McMansion Hell FYI, this post is now available for all to read! ## [McMansion Hell urges all New Yorkers to Rank Zohran Mamdani #1 for Mayor of NYC](https://mcmansionhell.com/post/786540193484341248) _2025-06-16 · McMansion Hell_ I know I am just a blog about ugly houses but I want to say something important here: the ruling class in this country does not want you to have affordable housing. They don’t want you to have clean, reliable public transportation. They don’t want you to have access to groceries you can afford. If something bad happens to you, they don’t care if you live or die.

Usually I think McMansions are kind of funny. Sometimes, I even like them. If I didn’t like them at least a little bit, I don’t think I’d be running this blog for a solid eight years and counting.

This is because “McMansionry” (let’s say) has many transferable properties.
