Paris Hilton apartment hunting downtown

Paris Hilton wants to spend more time in New York and is searching for a downtown apartment.

The LA-based hotel heiress, who is currently making a killing on the DJ circuit, began viewing properties on Friday after flying into town for the launch of her newly engaged sister Nicky’s book “365 Style.”

While her rep declined to comment, a source tells us, “Paris [is] looking at penthouse apartments downtown so she can be closer to her sister Nicky, who lives in New York, and her brother Barron, who also lives here. Nicky is getting married soon, and so Paris really wants to be able to help her sister and be involved in the wedding plans. She also loves New York, having grown up in the city.”
