President Trump might have a new tenant in his Fifth Ave. home.

The military is looking to lease space in Trump Tower, according to a report Tuesday by CNN.

A military spokesman told the news network that space in the skyscraper will likely be needed to support the new commander-in-chief when he stays with his wife, Melania, at their penthouse home.

“The space is necessary for the personnel and equipment who will support the POTUS at his residence in the building,” Lt. Col. J.B. Brindle told CNN.

A floor in the 70-story high-rise typically costs $1.5 million a year.
