Bono's neighbours have been banned from using their fireplaces after he complained about smoke in the building.

The U2 singer, who owns The San Remo penthouse on New York's highly desirable Central Park West street, was unhappy with the smoke coming from his neighbours' apartments and formally requested all open fires be stopped.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Bono recently complained of smoke from neighbouring apartments and now there has been in a ban on fireplace use in the whole building."

But the 'With or Without You' singer is rumoured to be moving downtown.

Bono and bandmate The Edge were recently spotted in the hot-pink Julian Schnabel tower at 360 West 11th Street with clipboards and brokers and sources say Bono is planning to buy the top two floors there.

The 47-year-old singer lives in Killiney, southern Ireland, with his wife Alison and their four children.

He and The Edge also share a villa in Èze, southern France.
