Kamala Harris has her eyes set on a New York City home after she leaves her official residence in Washington D.C., according to reports.
Her first gentleman, Doug Emhoff, had a solo tour of a swanky $20,000-a-month three-bedroom apartment at the Park Loggia condo building on the Upper West Side last week, Page Six reported. The visit comes amid reports that Harris blocked the incoming V.P., J.D. Vance, from a tour of the Naval Observatory residence in the capital.
The complex is notably close to a Trump property: it is diagonally opposite the Trump International Hotel and Tower, a view highlighted in the complex’s promotional Instagram account.

The main Harris-Emhoff base will be in California, but their Los Angeles home has been cut off by the fires raging across the state. Page Six said that Emhoff arrived at their potential new digs with a “convoy of SUVs and a phalanx of Secret Service,” but is unclear if the couple will sign on the dotted line.
But if they do take it, they have “maximum flow, and ”picturesque Manhattan scapes” to look forward to, according to Park Loggia’s website.
A source told Page Six that they “heard they were looking to be bicoastal.” Another source said that the Park Loggia condo was not the only pad in the Big Apple that the pair had considered.
Emhoff has reportedly been the one searching for properties in the city where his daughter 25-year-old Ella, an artist and fashion designer, lives. Ella, who calls Brooklyn home, recently spoke out about how the California wildfires had affected her.
She wrote on Instagram last week: “It’s really hard to put into words how devastating this all is. My heart is breaking watching so many friends/Californians lose their homes and history. I grew up in LA and most of that time in the Palisades, so this is hitting very close to home.”

Harris, meanwhile, is mentally preparing to become a private citizen again for the first time in over 20 years. The New York Times recently wrote that she will leave office “with no concrete plans about what to do next or how to proceed as a private citizen for the first time since she was elected San Francisco’s district attorney in 2003.”
