The Secret Service is leaving its space inside New York’s Trump Tower following a leasing dispute with the Trump Organization, The Washington Post reported. Agents were previously stationed one floor below Trump’s apartment, but last month the command post was moved to street-level in a trailer outside the Manhattan building. “After much consideration, it was mutually determined that it would be more cost effective and logistically practical for the Secret Service to lease space elsewhere,” a Trump Organization spokeswoman told the Post.

The newspaper cited two people familiar with the discussions as saying the disagreement centered around “price and other conditions of the lease.”
