Chelsea Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are in contract to buy a $10.5 million apartment in The Whitman, at 21 East 26th St.
Come June, NoMad residents will be keeping up with the Clintons.
Chelsea Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are buying a sleek, $10.5 million apartment overlooking Madison Square Park, sources said.
The Whitman, first built in 1924, is near the couple's current place, a rented loft in Gramercy Park.
The 5,000-square-foot pad, in The Whitman at 21 E. 26th St., is just a few blocks from the couple's rented Gramercy Park loft. Sources said staying nearby was a top priority for the pair.
Last Sunday, Clinton, 33, and her husband, 35, planned to take a hush-hush tour of the New Georgian-style pre-war with her parents, former President Bill Clinton and ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Sources said the couple arranged a private tour of the building with Clinton's parents last Sunday and were surprised to find hardhats at work on a gut renovation. The former first family happily posed for pictures and shook hands.

But when they showed up, the building was swarming with construction workers, a source said.
The former first family wasn't ruffled, though, and shook hands and posed for pictures with the awestruck workers, the source said.
The four-bedroom, five-and-a-half bath spread is on the second floor and features oak floors, Italian marble bathrooms and elevator access.

The bathrooms are Italian marble, and the building features a gym and an elevator. Clinton and Mezvinsky were impressed by the quiet block and tight security, a source said.

The living room has views of the north end of Madison Square Park, and there is a private gym downstairs.
A number of A-listers, including Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, toured the digs before the Clintons and Mezvinsky jumped on it, a real estate source said. 
Clinton and her husband are set to close on the apartment in June.
Clinton and Mezvinsky liked the block's quiet vibe and tight security.
"It's a rare opportunity to live in a pre-war building with high ceiling and park views," a broker who has toured the building told the News.
The couple is set to close on the apartment in June.
The apartment was listed by two of Douglas Elliman's top brokers, Melanie Lazenby — whose father George played James Bond in one film — and Dina Lewis.
They have hurt the country more than they have helped. Of course the Kennedys have a much longer history of doing harm.
Remember Clinton never won 50% of the vote and would have never been president had it not been for Ross Perot. His legacy? He was impeached. Hillary on the other hand had a hand in killing Vince Foster and now has blood on her hands for doing nothing and letting four Americans die in Benghazi. None of the Clintons deserve praise. The only reason Billy had any success was because the Republicans under the leadership of Newt Gingrich would not waiver in his conservative vision. Gingrichs contract for America was what saved Billy from himself.
As far as Chelsea and her hubby buying a $10 million townhouse what would one expect from the daughter of two swindlers who finagled their way out of the stigma of trailer park trash into the White Hut?
It must be nice to have all that parental money stashed in those off-shore accounts.
It’s certainly spacious/sarc!
There’s no way I could care less than I do.
Drag a million dollar check through an Arkansas trailor park, you never know what you’re gonna get.
Not too bad for a first fix-er upper home.......
Amazing how wealthy one can get working for the people.
The 1% rules!
I remember those days. We all had to struggle when we were young. Getting that first down payment was a bear!! Perhaps Daddy Webb helped these love struck kids.... /s
And I always like to mention when talking about the scumbag Klintons; the rape of Juanita Broderick. But what the hell, put a little ice on that.
Nothing about where the money came from. Her parents had to get someone else to sign when they bought their New York home so that Hillary could carpetbag her way into the Senate.
Did she pull a stunt like her momma and turn a $1000 investment into $100,000? Did she get an undeserved 6-figure salary like Monica Lewinsky from one of Bill’s friends?
But it is wrong to believe that anyone can make it in America. Democrats insist this is fact. The rich only get richer according to them. And they want to see it STAY THAT WAY.
Since Bill and Hill didn’t buy their first home until a few years ago, the details are still fresh in their minds and they can offer swell advice on the required paperwork.
Well, these kids needed a starter house.
I remember when her folks and her were just poor white trash from Arkansas.
Then the dead bodies kept piling up.
They still be white trash though.
amazing how Socialists are so ready to go and live with the masses. I am glad Chelsesa will be mixing with the poor and low paid workers.... Socialists are Bas.tards.
Money comes from her husband’s Mezvinsky crime family.
Another member of the ruling elite. Life high off the hog with our money and then look down their noses at us.
It wasn’t that many years ago that her worthless erstwhile father was making $20 thousand as the governor of Arkancide.
Guess I picked the wrong career field huh? Who woulda thunk a part time network reporter made that kinda koosh? I’m sure sleasbill and hildebeast told her “You’re on your own honey.” NOT! The pillars of society. Amazing.
They raped, murdered and hired contract killers to clean up the mess they left behind. Made Chernobyl look like a kiddies’ playground.
