Will Cape house alter 'Hopper Landscape?'

BARNSTABLE, Mass. -- A Cape Cod planning agency has agreed to review plans for a house that would alter a landscape that once inspired painter Edward Hopper.

The 6-4 vote by the Cape Cod Commission means the agency could limit the size and location of the proposed 6,500 square foot house on nine acres in Truro. But the agency has said it doesn't intend to stop or stall the project.

Donald and Andrea Kline want to build the house on a hill overlooking Cape Cod Bay.

Hopper saw the same view from his summer cottage, and for 70 years, the landscape has been unchanged.
