Not sure if this violates privacy rules, but it's a public article and he doesn't live there any more (and I'm pretty sure I've seen articles on this here before) so I figured it was okay to post it. Oh my bad, I must have read that really quickly the first time I saw it and thought it was still the original 1911 house.

There was an article or two about that also but one of them even printed the address so I don't think posting it here is a super idea Plus people will probably just bitch about how much it cost etc. I mean just look at the title of the Variety article!
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Is it even legal to publish someone's address?

I would imagine it's illegal to randomly publish a private citizen's address without consent however this house had been entered into a design/architecture or building (or something) competition and won best new building the year it was completed. It was a very public competition and the winners were announced publicly and published in quite a few articles etc. At least one named not only the architect (very obviously as he had won!) but the new owner. Since it was the house that won the prize it obviously published the full address. I'm rather stunned that a celebrity would give permission to their architect to enter such a competition with their house. 2

The house is owned by a real estate trust so the article I saw listed the trust as the owner so unless you were aware you wouldn’t know it was his house, at least not in the one article. An industry design award is a big deal for a firm and I would assume they get nominated by someone but an architect doesn’t enter it like it’s a contest, I don’t think it is a consent situation. Similar home design awards I’ve seen list the address and often keep the homeowners anonymous so it’s fine. 2

The one I saw was focused on Billie himself talking about why he would sell his nearly 5 million dollar home and where would he go (the answer being this newer award winning outrageously expensive by their standards home). Trashy journalism if you can even call it journalism

Finances get complicated even if you own a business once you make your first million trust me. Buying multiple properties is a strategy we all employ and the only people who judge others for their homes are the jealous kind like the writers at Variety with the sarcastic title and the writer of the 2010 article about the Piedmont house.

Seriously, I don't want/need to know his address but do you know what the awards were for, e.g. sustainability or just plain awesomeness?
