Life in the Big Apple has been a pretty sweet ride for Lindsay Lohan.

LinLo has been given a free condo in New York because the owners wanted to make the new building appear glamorous.

The "Mean Girls" star was reported to have purchased an apartment in New York's new Atelier building, on West 42nd Street, but developers have actually just offered her the use of it for free to boost their profile.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "She's not buying or renting the apartment but she will probably start house hunting for her own place in Manhattan once she gets back from a three-month movie shoot in London."

The condo is decorated in fashionable retro style described as "mid-century" and the building has its own gym, sauna, indoor pool, basketball and volleyball courts and a roof-top billiard lounge.
