A-list owners at this NYC condo are leasing a commercial space for a shared lounge

Dan Abrams and Chelsea Clinton will be lounging together in NoMad.

The media personality, the former first daughter and the other two unit owners in the famed Whitman condominium are chipping in to lease a commercial space at the base of their building for a shared residents’ lounge, according to a source with knowledge of the deal.

Together, the home owners at the tony boutique condo at 21 E. 26th St. scooped up 2,200 square feet in the block-through lower-level space, accessible internally by elevator, and via the building’s East 26th and East 27th Street entrances.

The asking rent was $8,500 a month for a five- to 10-year lease, according to a listing flyer from Meridian Retail Leasing.

The commercial unit, owned by investors including Vlad Tsirkin, used to house a physical therapy business.

Residents will be able to use the space, which includes an HVAC system and a bathroom, as a playroom, a party space or a meeting room, the source added.

Retail real estate broker James Famularo, who was the exclusive broker for the space, didn’t respond to The Post’s repeated requests for comment.

The boutique condo, built in 1924, comprises four floor-through apartments, including a duplex, and overlooks Madison Square Park. It has a full-time doorman, a private locked storage, a gym and a key-locked elevator.

Abrams and his longtime partner, publicist Florinka Pesenti, occupy the 4,967-square-foot third floor with their two children.

They nabbed the four-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom spread for $10.62 million in April from hedge fund trader John Silvetz and his wife, model Wilda Deon Bray. The financier bought the pad in August 2013 for roughly $10 million.

Clinton and husband Marc Mezvinsky, for their part, live on the fourth floor with their three kids. They bought their $10.5 million four-bedroom, 6.5-bath home with a family room boasting a full view of the park in 2013.

The building has long been known for its other star home owners.

Jennifer Lopez recently sold her $25 million duplex condo penthouse unit in the building after it lingered on the market for seven years. That home spans 9,500 square feet — 6,250 square feet indoors — with four terraces. It has four bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms, staff quarters, a guest wing and a media room, according to the listing on StreetEasy. She bought the home in 2014, when it had an asking price of $22 million.

NASCAR champ Jeff Gordon bought the second-floor unit with four bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and a powder room for $10 million in 2013. He put it on the market last year for $12.9 million.
