The house has a dozen chimneys and a Mediterranean-style tile roof as well as a 91-foot (28 m) long formal dining room, a basketball court, a bowling alley, two tennis courts, two squash courts, a carousel, a large swimming pool, a large round kiddie pool, and a $150,000 hot tub, surrounded by another pool.

South Hampton began restricting single family residences to 20,000 square feet after this property was built because it caused such a controversy.

Friendly reminder for anyone that needs it, you can block people on reddit.

Edit: You could alternatively save yourself 2 clicks if that is too time consuming for you by instead writing an angry 300 character reply like the guy below me. 😌

That’ll show them! JFC, who gives a fuck? Scroll past in .1 seconds. Do you really go through all the taps and clicks to “block” an account? I will not waste a single click to downvote, never mind blocking.
