Frank Islam is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and Democratic party donor.
Islam built this home, named "Norton Hall" over 7 years. The home features 40,000 sqft as well as a separate 7,000 sqft guest house set on 10 acres and includes 14 bedrooms and 22 bathrooms. The home was designed to resemble a mixture of Rhode Island Guilded Age architecture as well as the Palace of Versailles. Different gardens around the property were designed to invoke the White House Rose Garden. There is a rotunda modeled after that of the U.S. Capitol and the pool resembles those of the Taj Mahal and Rashtrapati Bhavan.
