Neighbors started talking about Rogers Park’s leopard-print residence soon after co-owner Michael O’Reilly painted it 11 years ago. And it didn’t take long for a rep from the alderman’s office to come knocking; Matt Gleeman Long, who owns the house with O’Reilly, assured the official that they weren’t running some sort of exotic petting zoo.
“I keep threatening the next time I paint the house, it’s going to be Burberry plaid, because that’s more conservative.”
