In this case, Nick describes his new neighbor 's or Gatsby 's house as: "The one on the right was a colossal affair by andy standard - it was a factual imitation of some Hotel de Ville in Normandy, with a tower on one side, spanking new under a thin beard of raw ivy, and a marble swimming pool, and more than forty acres of lawn and garden" (7).
