ELF and "Street of Dream" Homes

Eco-terrorism or sending a message? Massive urban sprawl continues. The average size of the American family is declining, but the avg. square foot per house has increased dramatically. Are these big homes wasteful and inneficient, or simply expressing the right to live how one wants?

Officials are blaming "domestic terrorism" for fires early today that destroyed three multi-million-dollar homes and damaged a fourth which were built as part of last year's Seattle Street of Dreams in the Maltby area of Snohomish County.
Damage was estimated at $7 million.


Early reports indicated that explosive devices were found inside the homes. And nearby, a spray-painted sign bearing the initials of the Earth Liberation Front, challenged builders' assertion that the homes featured environmentally responsible construction methods.


A KING-5 video showed the sign, which read: "Built Green? Nope black! McMansions in RCDs r not green. ELF" The initials "RCD" refers to "rural cluster development."
Investigators are looking at the possibility that attempts were made to start a fifth house on fire.
