Pete Davidson may be saying goodbye to Staten Island, but according to the people who lived around him, the comedian is leaving behind a pretty stellar reputation. Months after selling his luxury waterfront condo, Davidson’s former neighbors are speaking out, revealing that the “Saturday Night Live” alum was far from your typical celebrity resident.

Christopher Campbell, president of the condo board at Davidson’s former building, recently praised the comedian for being respectful, approachable, and surprisingly down-to-earth.

“He was polite, he was nice to everyone,” Campbell told SILive.com. “If he’s on the elevator and he doesn’t know the person, he would introduce himself, and people just thought of him as their neighbor.”

Campbell, who lived near Davidson for years at the Accolade Condominium at 90 Bay Street Landing in Staten Island’s St. George neighborhood, said the comedian always made an effort to be considerate despite his fame.

According to Campbell, Davidson even went out of his way to avoid causing headaches for neighbors when famous guests came by, including ex-girlfriend Kim Kardashian. “When he was dating [Kim Kardashian], she would come here… and he thought of his neighbors, and he didn’t want to have an entourage blocking the front entrance, so he would take the side door to be polite,” Campbell recalled.

The condo board president also shared that Davidson frequently hosted celebrity friends, turning the building into an unexpected hotspot. “He used to bring his celebrity friends, so you never know who you’re going to meet in the building,” Campbell said. “Miley Cyrus has been here, Kid Cudi, Machine Gun Kelly.”

One story in particular stood out to Campbell. Shortly after moving into the building, Davidson reportedly had a young fan repeatedly ringing his doorbell late at night. “There was a young girl that was ringing his doorbell at like one o’clock in the morning, and I’m the president in the building,” Campbell explained.

After offering to intervene, Campbell said Davidson handled the situation with kindness. “So I said, ‘Well, what do you want to do? You want me to speak to the mother?’” Campbell recalled. “He said, ‘Nah, it’s just a young girl, she’s excited, she’ll realize I’m just Pete,’ and that’s exactly what happened.”

Campbell added, “He had such a nice way about him.”

Campbell later penned a farewell letter to Davidson after learning the comedian had sold the property. In the note, he reportedly thanked Davidson for being “friendly, approachable, and respectful to everyone around” him and praised the actor for bringing “a special energy” to the building.

Davidson originally purchased the nearly 1,600-square-foot condo in 2020 for $1.2 million, later selling it this month after multiple price cuts and renovations.

The sale came amid reports that Davidson and girlfriend Elsie Hewitt recently split just months after welcoming their daughter, Scottie Rose. Although Davidson and Hewitt are reportedly committed to co-parenting their baby girl, insiders claim the split appears to be permanent. “He’s always been consistently supportive. He wants her to be in a good place. There’s a baby involved, and that’s their priority,” one insider shared of the couple’s current relationship.

According to sources, while the pair are prioritizing Scottie and working together as parents, reconciliation is currently not in the cards. “They are done. There have been problems throughout their relationship, and things are not good between them at all. They haven’t been for a while,” another insider claimed. “They tried working things out but decided it was best to go their separate ways.”

Even after the breakup, insiders claim Davidson is continuing to step up in a major way for Hewitt and their daughter. A source close to the former couple told Page Six that the comedian has been doing everything possible to make sure both Hewitt and baby Scottie feel supported during the transition. “Pete is doing everything to be super supportive to Elsie, he’s changed his schedule, and done everything he can to be there physically and financially so Elsie can feel supported,” the insider alleged.

According to the source, Davidson has also reportedly taken on the financial responsibilities tied to both Hewitt and their baby girl. “Pete has been paying for everything related to Elsie and Scottie,” the insider claimed, including “the rent, their living expenses, their health insurance.”

While the source acknowledged there had been “personal disagreements” and a “breakdown in the relationship,” they insisted Davidson remains “fully committed to being a good dad.”
