New York: Take a look inside the Trump Tower!

a first surprise for many visitors to Trump Tower it's legendary Lobby is open to the public tourists taking snapshots of the same gilded escalator Donald Trump road down to announce his candidacy an even bigger attraction the elevator also gilded which goes to the office of the next president of the United States since the election this elevator has carried every one of trumps visitors a cavalcade of cabinet hopefuls stars and billionaires all before the watchful eye of the TV cameras that have been camped out here for over a month I have to wait for the light to come and then whatever life I zoom into that elevator and I so you always have to have your eye open over here it's politics tourism and shopping all mixed together what happens upstairs is a bit more private up to the 26th for the tower is office space including for Trump himself further up 265 luxury apartments actor Bruce Willis and footballer Cristiano Ronaldo keep pietà tears there even Michael Jackson had a residence at the very top the inner sanctum Donald Trump's three-story penthouse Oh welcome to trevore George Lombardi is an Italian businessman and Trump's neighbor he's proud to live in the same building as the future president whom he's known for over 20 years truly do own a month we both have a bit of a taste for the Rococo the Baroque but Trump style is a bit more let's say American that flashy style is reflected throughout the building it's in bold to try to sell vacant apartment this real estate agent has had to change the decor everybody prefers modern clean simple minimalistic the list price 2 million euros for 100 square metres but for now no buyers Trump Tower seems to have lost some of its residential appeal that may have something to do with the massive security cordon that now surrounds the area luxury boutiques in and around the tower are losing clients with some itching to move out since the nuisance won't be letting up anytime soon that's because even after he moves to the Whitehouse Donald Trump plans to spend his weekends here
