BILL EYEING EAST SIDE OFFICE MOVE
IS Bill Clinton renting a pricey suite of offices on Lexington
Avenue once he leaves the White House? Nobody will confirm it.
But contradicting the persistent rumor that he would take a job
in Los Angeles with DreamWorks, Clinton is said to have leased
space at 599 Lexington Ave., between 52nd and 53rd Streets.
Keeping it all in the Democratic family, his new landlord is
Boston Properties, the giant real-estate company headed by Daily
News publisher Mort Zuckerman. An employee at the building's
management office said, "I can't confirm or deny this."
Clinton's move wouldn't come cheap. Space prime Manhattan office
buildings like 599 Lexington is going for around $75 a square
foot per year. A move there will do nothing to quash speculation,
first reported by our colleague Neal Travis, that Clinton will
run for mayor next year.
The building is an easy stroll from Grand Central, where Clinton
could catch MetroNorth trains to and from his $1.9 million house
in Chappaqua - which Travis also reports the Clintons might sell
to an admiring Democrat for a huge profit.
Besides their staggering legal bills and daughter Chelsea's
Stanford tuition, Clinton will need a hefty income to cover the
carrying costs for the Chappaqua home, a Midtown office, plus -
perhaps - a pied-a-terre in Washington for Hillary when the
Senate is in session.
While Hillary's Senate salary is $141,300 a year, Clinton is
facing disbarment. But he stands to make up to $100,000 per
speaking engagement, and an estimated $7 million advance for his
memoirs.
Clinton is already in the swing of the New York restaurant world.
Last week, he picked up the phone personally and called Rao's
owner Frank Pellegrino to get Hillary a table at the clubby East
Harlem eatery. According to spies, an unimpressed Pellegrino
casually said, "I'll see what I can do."
"Frankie got them a booth, which in Rao's is like going to
heaven," our insider reported. Hillary dined with Harlem Rep.
Charlie Rangel. Clinton called Pellegrino back the next night to
thank him.
Meanwhile, Monica Lewinsky went to a cocktail party in a NoHo
loft with her pal Victoria Leacock. But as soon as someone lit a
joint, the cigar-loving former White House intern made her exit.
"Too risky for my reputation," she explained on the way out.
