O.o it is in Sunset Beach next to harbor house… Huntington ends at the traffic light where the bird sanctuary is.

sunset beach has been annexed by huntington beach

Its Sunset Beach, not Huntington.. I rented it for a week about 5 years ago. Its cool but the elevator to get up was sketchy..

It is actually Sunset Beach. I only know cuz Harbor House restaurant is almost next door in the menu shows Sunset Beach as their address.

I think #10 looks more like a Light house… Still cool to live in one thought.

Cool would like to see more of the inside though.

Michael Kelso is probably foaming at the mouth after this.

I wonder what the acoustics are like in some of these that incorporated the actual metal container at the top into the design. Probably sounds weird.

Great! Now you have a house that looks like a Penis

A home in a water tower never occured to me but it would be brilliant! As well as diabolically secure against burglars if you have a rectractable ladder.

YAWN!

water they thinking?

This is a fantastic idea and a great reuse of unused public property. But if I lived there I don't think I'd be able to keep the Animaniacs theme song out of my head!

…and we're zany to the max….

awesome. And I agree.

These aren't houses, they are zombie apocalypse shelters. Seriously stock that puppy up and enjoy your days headshotting the undead.

All I can think of when I see these places is that it would suck to move all your shit and carry groceries up those stairs

#21 would be a chimney stack…
sniggi

do they have indoor plumbing

I've gotten to my car WAAAY too many times and realized I forgot something in the house to even remotely consider living in something like that.

Who needs a ferrari when you can overcompensate with a more obvious phallic symbol.

Kind of gives a new meaning to living in a fishbowl, particularly #'s 3-6.

You forgot one

I totally partied in number 1-2 last 4th of July.

how ironic would it be to live in a water tower with no running water?
Abrikosmanden

#19 and #20 almost made me shed tears! That water tower is in Gentofte, Denmark where I grew up! Did NOT expect to see that on theCHIVE!!!
I kissed a few girls at parties at that place, when I was in pre school…
