I can't help it.
It's part of my commute.
And they are building one place and one place only in Malibu.
There's one construction site on Pacific Coast Highway on the ocean.
And so far, they have sunk...
Thirty five caissons, cement caissons, six stories into the ground.
They are building a seawall.
They are building what I would refer to as Hitler's bunker, essentially, with hundreds of yards of concrete and rebar and caissons and.
pylons and it is insane what they're forcing them to do but it's all in the name of safety and then there's the coastal commission and that's another environmental thing but that that circles back to safety and so it's just oodles of women in charge of when we're building and how fast we're building and what we're going to build and when you just keep talking about safety
What I used to build here in Los Angeles in the 80s and in the 90s, the stuff that I'm building today does not resemble that at all because everything is 10 times as safe.
It's 10 times thicker, 10 times deeper, 10 times wider.
It is insane.
I can show you, Dr. Phil, a picture of this little film of this beachfront thing.
These caissons are three foot around, and they go six stories into the ground.
This is just one house.
This is a 2,000-square-foot house on the beach.
The contractor told me it was $2.5 million that they were going to have to โ
put into the foundation.
Two and a half million before they started framing the house.
That's how crazy it is.
