Another leak has sprung in Jerry Seinfeld's rocky apartment renovations -- literally. Workmen were recently banging away on his $4 million Beresford duplex when the water pipes burst in the prewar Central Park West building, showering the apartments below. The flooding was so severe, a source reports, that the unemployed funnyman had to replace a neighbor's waterlogged $60,000 home gym and relocate the soggy tenants downstairs to the Excelsior Hotel up the block. Seinfeld's spokeswoman, Elizabeth Clark, denies anyone was relocated but does acknowledge "leaks and drips" emanating from the apartment the comic purchased fromviolinist Isaac Stern last year. "The last thing Jerry wants to do is inconvenience his neighbors," says Clark. "When he found out about the water damage, Jerry paid [for the repairs] right away."
Unfortunately for Jerry, when it rains it pours: Not only are Seinfeld and new wife Jessica Sklar still without their completed honeymoon pad -- they were also fined for exceeding the Beresford's strict one-year renovation policy.
