60 Avenue B blog

The tenants at 60 Ave B are now in the middle of the construction run amok nightmare. They are documenting their experiences on a great blog titled "60aveb". Here is a link and some photos of what is occurring in their homes. Please take a look.

Renovations at 210 Rivington, and 102 Norfolk

Another Round of Gut Renovations

This video was taken by a tenant recording illegal after hour construction. Its keeping the tenant's child awake. The lack of response from the worker is sadly typical. We tenants will have to be the Real Time Enforcement with our cameras, and smart phones, until we can force the DOB to do so.

Construction at 58 East 3rd St.

The dust and debris of gut renovation in the hallways. The plastic tarp hung over the apartment doors are completely ineffective in keeping the dust and filth out of a tenant's home. The chemical content  of the dust and debris is uncertain, as well as its effect upon tenant health. Children and Seniors perhaps most vulnerable to the effects of the the noise, stress, and filth.
