Les Firestein told the Los Angeles Times he wanted to make the tree house "a magical place" for his 18-month old daughter. He enlisted friend and designer Roderick Romero, who has built tree houses for such celebrities as Sting and Donna Karan.

But it also looks down into the yard of Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Richard Fleming, who claims it allows viewing of his swimming pool and hot tub. Fleming called the city to complain about a possible zoning violation. Firestein was issued a stop-work order Friday until the zoning and permit issues are resolved, and he's not happy, the newspaper said. "It's as if the city has come in and said, 'We're outlawing magic,'" he said.
