Cohen's limestone palace features eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms — with gold-plated hippopotamus faucets — plus an indoor theater. Not surprisingly, the home also boasts one of the world's most impressive porcelain collections, including 2,500 mostly European pieces, and portrait miniatures created between 1780 and 1840. Cohen also owns the world’s second-largest collection of Three Stooges memorabilia and several locks of Napoleon’s hair.

Unfortunately, the property suffered some structural damage in 1998 because the limestone was too heavy for the frame, but was rebuilt with a concrete and steel frame similar to those used in office buildings.
