The former 'The Real Housewives of New York City' star and real estate agent has moved back into her former apartment building in downtown Manhattan, known as the Police Building.

AceShowbiz - There's no place like home for Kelly Bensimon, who has recently moved back into her former apartment building at 240 Centre Street in Lower Manhattan. This significant move follows the cancellation of her wedding to financier Scott Litner after his refusal to sign a prenuptial agreement. The luxurious historic building, often referred to as the Police Building due to its legacy as the former headquarters of the New York City Police Department, holds a special place in Bensimon's heart.

Bensimon, who is known as the "unofficial commissioner" and broker specialist of the Police Building, had rented out her original three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment for $28,500 last summer upon getting engaged to Litner. With her original unit still rented, she has taken up residence in another apartment within the same building.

"I'm excited about my new chapter," Bensimon remarked to Page Six, reflecting on her move back into the historic edifice. Her dedication to the building is evident from her social media presence, where she shared her fondness for the place in an Instagram post, stating, "I take selling and buying this building very seriously. It's been my home for three decades and the haunt of the most powerful humans in New York from Teddy Roosevelt to Calvin Klein."

Bensimon's love for the iconic building goes beyond just living there; she also thrives as a premier broker and real estate agent associated with the landmark. A June article from the luxury real estate blog Elliman Insider highlighted her long association with the building, mentioning that Bensimon has lived there for over 30 years, transitioning from a model and student to a magazine editor, author, mother and television personality.

The decision to call off her wedding came on June 25, only a few days before the planned ceremony, which was supposed to take place in Boston. Explaining her choice to PEOPLE, Bensimon emphasized, "Ultimately, my decision is nobody's business, but I understand that there is speculation and gossip, and I want to put an end to all of it. To be clear, he refused to sign a prenuptial agreement, and I refused to marry him. Full stop."

Since the cancellation, Bensimon has shifted her focus back to her family and career. She spent what would have been her wedding weekend with her loved ones in the Hamptons, sharing photos with the caption, "Family first."

Moving forward, Kelly Bensimon is ready to embark on this new chapter at 240 Centre Street with renewed vigor, often seen championing her love for real estate and dedication to helping people find their homes. Reflecting on her journey, she stated, "I really care about finding people homes... I want to move forward and create an amazing life."
