Chansley, 35, was sentenced to three years and four months in prison after storming the US Capitol on January 6
The property has 62 beds for men and 16 beds for women, with Chansley scheduled to stay in the property until May 2023, according to the BOP website.
Chansley was spotted on the top floor of the building, located in a middle-class neighborhood in downtown Phoenix.
He was spotted coming and going from the unit, to grab food before standing outside and smiling with a large mug in his hand.
Wearing a beanie and a sweatshirt, Chansley cut a very different figure to the one who broke into the Capitol on January 6 wearing a horned headdress and face paint.
He appeared to be talking to someone on the phone as he clutched a large silver mug and walked on the property’s balcony in bright blue shorts.
Chansley grinned as he appeared to be on the phone, but has yet to leave the gated property, which has security cameras covering all entrances.
