There may be a Hilton or two coming uptown, but we’re not talking about hotels. Following a glam June wedding in St. Barts, Hilton heir Barron Hilton II — little brother of Paris and Nicky — and his bride, socialite Tessa Hilton, have been house hunting on the Upper West Side.
One spot they toured was a 17-room townhome at 24 W. 71st St. known as the Milbank Mansion.
