Casa Madonna has become Compound Madonna. Reports are circulating that Her Madgesty is finally moving in to her freshly renovated $32 million mansion at 152 East 81st Street, and while our Official Curbed Madonna Correspondent didn't see any moving vans outside he did notice another design feature that the Material Girl has added to the property: A new front gate that basically tells fans, paparazzi and evildoers to buzz off. But aren't there snipers on the roof to protect against all that? Guess the locals won't be allowed to drop off any welcome-to-the-neighborhood fruit baskets.
