While Alicia Keys travels the country for her Set the World on Fire tour, her team back home is moving her stuff out of the New York City penthouse that she and hubby Swizz Beatz just sold.  That's no easy task, considering that Alicia's old pad is at the top of a really tall building.

There is, however, a way to get Alicia's stuff downstairs in a flash: she's hired a construction crane, according to TMZ.  The website shared photos of Alicia's couch being lifted from her glass-covered SoHo condo, and lowered to the ground. The North American leg of Alicia's tour wraps up in April, and maybe then she'll have a chance to relax at the home in Englewood, New Jersey, that she and Swizz bought back in October.
