There was an old woman who lived in a shoe... Well, okay, in this case it was actually a man who owned this boot-shaped Pennsylvania house. Shoe store tycoon Mahlon Haines built this landmark home in 1948 as an advertising gimmick. The house features a front door with a stained-glass portrait of the owner himself, an observation platform, and even a shoe-shaped doghouse. Fittingly, Mahlon once used the home as a guest house, offering weekend stays to elderly couples.
