Jerry Andrus, a world renown illusionist called his home in Albany the "house of chaos!" Otherwise known as the "Key Hole House" because of it's odd shaped windows, the home will be featured on the annual Christmas Parlour Tour, December 11th.
"Jerry Andrus is well known among many of the world's greatest performing magicians as one of the best "close-up magic" performers. However, he is equally regarded among scientists, educators and skeptics as a visionary, poet, philosopher, inventor and creator of truly amazing optical illusions."

If I can catch a ride over the river, I may check it out. Looks like it will be really nice. I took the Albany house tours a few years back when I was still in the Red Hat Society. Had a real blast!
