New York City Is Just Right for Gordon, Wife

Hidden among endless Yankee and Met writing and glamorous celebrity coverage came this nugget of news last week from the New York Post.

"NASCAR star Jeff Gordon has just become a full-time New Yorker.The 35-year-old hot-rodder and his smokin' hot Belgian model wife Ingrid Vandebosch have just signed a one-year, $26,000-a-month lease for an apartment at the Park Imperial on West 56th Street."

For that cool $26K/month, Gordon's pad at the Park Imperial will have three bedrooms and bathrooms. Views of Central Park from 70 stories up will be the norm and tenant that lives just above the new space? Sean "Diddy" Combs. That's a treat in itself, for sure.

The New York City address is nothing new for Gordon, as he has had at some residence in the Big Apple for a few years now. Apparently, Jimmie Johnson and his wife also have a place in the city.

Gordon will undoubtedly keep a place to stay in the Carolina region, as well, just for ease of visiting the Hendrick shop and other related events in the area.

Gordon's wife, Ingrid Vandebosch, is expecting a daughter in early June.
