An architectural rendering stands in front of architect Louis Cherry's unfinished house in Raleigh, N.C., on Sunday, March 16, 2014. The Historic Oakwood neighborhood is divided over whether this modern house clashes with preservation guidelines. "I mean, you can't build an old home," Cherry says. "Forty years of preservation wisdom show that building copycat homes diminishes the value of historic homes. It doesn't really honor them." "And it creates a Disneyland kind of community," says his wife, Marsha Gordon, "which is NOT what Oakwood is." (AP Photo/Allen G. Breed)
