The South Florida house that gangster Al Capone owned for nearly two decades, and died in, is getting demoed by the new owners who call it "a disgrace to Miami Beach", plan on putting a two-story modern spec home with 8 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, a Jacuzzi, spa and sauna.
The Miami Herald reported Thursday that the new owner of the nine-bedroom home, developer Todd Glaser, told the Herald the home, which is about 3 feet (1 meter) below sea level, has flood damage and standing water underneath it.
I don't understand why the house isn't historic.
