THIS IS THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT

- one of two man-made creations visible from outer space, the other being the Great Wall of China (and even that's a misnomer)

- is always warm with love, and smelling of mulled apple cider

- Jack only built a small part of his house. the majority was built by volunteers working for former president Jimmy Carter's brainchild, HUD

- has one guest room for Little Miss Muffet, one for Peter Piper, and another for Simple Simon

- pantry closet doubles as Harry Potter's vacation home

- houses the world's largest collection of graduated cylinders

- around the corner from Little Jack Horner

- welcome mat reads, "ME SO HUNGRY"
