Paris Hilton goes house hunting in New York

New York: Paris Hilton is hunting for a downtown apartment in New York City.

The 33-year-old LA-based hotel heiress, who was in the city for the launch of her sister Nicky Hilton 's book, 365 Style, has been reportedly looking for penthouse apartments, reports suggest.

A source said that since Nicky was engaged and would be married soon, Hilton wanted to move closer to her and brother Barron, both of whom live in New York, to be able to help her sister in the wedding plans.
