Sheldon Silver enjoyed his last moments of freedom on the Lower East Side on Saturday morning, a day after the disgraced ex-Assembly speaker was sentenced to seven years in prison for corruption.

Walking along Grand Street near his apartment, side-by-side with a younger man after services at Bialy­stoker Synagogue, an unsteady and graying Silver swatted away questions from The Post.

“Good morning,” the fedora-fitted felon said, sarcastically. “You just made your day.”

Silver, 74, is loose pending appeal after his second conviction for taking $4 million in kickbacks, plus $1 million in profits tied to two corruption schemes.

He’s free on the same $200,000 bail he posted when he was arrested in January 2015 for bribery.

After his first conviction that year, Silver was sentenced to 12 years in prison in 2016.

That conviction was eventually overturned on appealafter the US Supreme Court narrowed the definition of bribery.

He was convicted again in May. On Friday, Judge Valerie Caproni gave Silver a lesser sentence, citing the Democrat’s advanced age.

“I feel like, visually, he’s aged more than the three years that have gone by chronologically,” she said.

Caproni, who presided over both trials, also noted the hefty financial burden she’s placing on Silver, who now owes a $1.75 million fine — $1.2 million of which is due Sept. 21.

The crooked kingmaker may also have to forfeit nearly $5.2 million in pocketed bribes and profit.

He was ordered to surrender to prison Oct. 5.

But if he successfully argues to remain free while appealing his conviction, as he has for the past two years, that date will be voided.

The judge recommended he at some point be sent to the Otisville federal prison in upstate Orange County, known for services for Orthodox Jewish inmates.

Silver is the fourth public official with Albany ties convicted in the Manhattan federal courthouse since March.

Silver’s lawyers had proposed, without success, that he serve a no-jail, commu­nity-service sentence of “helping” New Yorkers by ­using his “unique skills.”
