Bob Hope’s Spaceship House Finally Sells

Several years ago the family of the late Bob Hope put his Coachella Valley home up for sale for the giant price of $50,000,000.  That's a lot of money, but the home is a whopping 23,000 sq ft and was designed by one of LA's most dynamic architect,  John Lautner.
