I found this marble enclosed ribcage shower on the Cleveand craigslist. They're looking for offers. You know it's exactly what you want for your house!

A contributing structure in the Shaker Village Historic District, a National Register of Historic Places historic district.
Built 1926 by Richard U. Collier.
Designed by architect William A. Bingham.
Fixing a house in a city where the idea of a fixer-upper is a foreign concept. Navigating laws that seem to ignore the possibility of owners doing their own repair work. Illustrating interesting homes for sale in the city. We'd planned on buying a major fixer-upper, and then the house of our dreams appeared. There will still be projects, yes, but they'll be more of the "detail" type and less of the "how are we going to make dinner without a functioning kitchen" type.

How cool is that?! We almost bought an old mansion once that had something similar. Hard to believe they would want to get rid of it.
Wow! That's awesome! I want it.

I'm so pissed that I'm just now seeing this! Do you know how much it went for? I am looking for one (affordable - which is the hard part)
I have no clue what it went for. Sorry. I'll keep my eyes open.
