" We live at the above address and we just had a building disaster where it flooded the 1st, 2nd, 3rd & basement floor on Feb.22, 2015 around 7:30pm due to major pipe busted. We barely get heat & hot water. We have the elderly, sick, newborn & premie babies also handicapped. The elevator barely works the building maintenance is not up to par and there are major health and risk violations in these apartments. We turned to City Housing Inspectors multiple times and no positive results this far. Our building was just PARTIALLY CONDEMNED on Feb.23, 2015. On Feb.22,2015 the landlord Raj stated to Inspector Ross Smith that he would place the tenants in a hotel in Tuckahoe but he never followed through so the tenants had to remain in soiled apartments which was never cleaned out by the super who was suppose to remove excessive water. The landlord never came to his property the day this all took place. Now us tax payers backs are against the wall we are not getting the proper assistance we should be receiving. The management supposedly will be doing major construction, gutting, etc and there are tenants that still reside in the building. These repairs are health hazards because it's gonna put particles in the air and my children are chronic asthmatics including myself along with other tenants and children that still resideon floors 4,5 and 6. I'm sorry but I never heard of partially Condemning an apt building. My next step is contacting channel 12, fox 5, cbs news 2 etc. We need your help Im just doing the typing but US tenants are behind this email. We are in desperate need of help. Please do reach out and respond! We truly do appreciate you taking the time out to read this email but please do not overlook us! Have a blessed day! "
