    And during the week, the mansion hosts James Harden and his 'H' gangsta parties.

    Hey, isn't that the mansion where that crazy old guy imprisoned all those younger transient men, until they rose up and killed him?

    No, actually, I think that was in Seabrook now that I think about it.

    Nevermind.

    Both the West Mansion and the Todville Mansion are technically in the Seabrook area. That Todville Mansion was one creepy place to go "visit".

    That place has been torn down for years and there is now a small subdivision on the property.

    Dreams my favorite player of all time and probably always will be but this upscale stuff sure doesn't fit the humble modest dream i grew up watching.

    That's an odd venue. What's with the tacky awnings and ever-present "DR34M" logo? Why were there retail clothing racks set up throughout if it's supposed to primarily host weddings? And the asphalt parking lot...really?

    Odd venue for any kind of business even high end.

    But it is a nice touch

    So this is what Hakeem has been doing with his time now. Creating his own fashion line and building a mansion, that's also his store? I'm not exactly sure if that's a good move. I don't think the high class would like to go to somebody's home to shop. Sounds creepy.
