Calvin Klein Finally Slays His Dragon's Head

Posted May 20th 2009 5:35PM by TMZ Staff

It's been two years in the making, but Calvin Klein is finally destroying his notorious $30 million Hamptons mansion -- known famously as "Dragon's Head."

CK had been trying to get approval to tear down the 55,000 square foot castle so he could replace it with a newer, sleeker model -- and judging by the photo taken earlier today, dude finally got the green light.

Calvin's new place will only be 17,000 square feet, spread between three buildings -- but the coolest part, they're all going to be connected with underground tunnels.

3. Toofast,

Being FIRST here just means you have nothing else to do all day. It's says you have nothing better to do, OK?

4. He should be able to do what he wants on his own property!

5. Some people have too much money. Has he ever heard of charity?

6. Calvin Klein -- isn't that the guy that makes the expensive men's underwear that Michael J. Fox wore in the movie "Back To The Future"? Dude must have sold a ton of men's briefs! I can't imagine how big the house is for the guy who sells "Fruit of the Loom" underwear.

Posted at 7:09PM on May 20th 2009 by Ooooo Noooo!

7. I am happy for him! He's a great businessman and has made great strides in the fashion world as well!!! He has earned anything he wants with his money and I am sure is very charitable. He has also been a great outlet for many models careers. Good Luck with your future home.

8. Give the money to charity? how about he continue to build his home which will provide jobs for labor workers even if it is temporary. Since the Hamptons is a "keeping up with the Jones'" kind of place I'm sure that other home owners will be compeled to remodel or rebuild their "relics" that were built 5 years ago which in turn will create more jobs.
Funny how that works.
And Ooooo-Nooooo your comment about the underwear was rediculous and immature.

9. #6- epic fail at humor

10. What a disgusting abuse of wealth.

11. Tearing down a 60,000 sq ft mansion just to rebuild it? That's not very environmentally friendly!

Why doesn't Calvin Klein help out working families with that money?

12. I agree with Shannon. And it's bad timing. Maybe everyone will stop buying his brand if they learn of this!!!

13. i hope they recycled as much as they could out of this place. i highly doubt it, but i guess it is his money/property although it is disgrace.

Posted at 8:36PM on May 20th 2009 by i still hate retards

14. May he rot in hell!

Posted at 8:36PM on May 20th 2009 by barfin' on this one

15. What a complete piece of garbage. And the demolition of the house looks bad, too.
