If you could live next to a celebrity, which one would it be? Have ever wondered if a favorite celebrity of yours lived down the block? Now there is an online application for just that.
Rental real estate company rentenna.com developed the online tool. Type in an address in the five boroughs and find out which celebs live within a 1-mile radius.
Rentenna co-founder Kayvon Bina says celebrities exact addresses aren't given away. He sees it as a fun tool, not a total selling point for perspective renters.
Bina says certain celebrities might lend a personality to a neighborhood.
Rentenna CEO Kevin Dolan developed the celebrity database from public records.
We found that it is not completely up to date. Clearly President Barack Obama no longer lives in Harlem. But don't be surprised if you pass legend Al Pacino on the Upper West.
The application doesn't give exact addresses, just general locations. So what's going on near Fox 5? The closest celebrity is Chef Emeril Lagasse, about .14 miles away.
