They never fought for tenants, never fought the chopping and churning and construction. They are fighting against renters and for buyers to get to the 85%.<br /><br />If anyone thinks the remaining 5000 rent stabilized apartments and roughly 12,000 people living in them are safe they are not. They want to raise the rent to the $3200 calculated rent roll, that is why that clause is in their agreement. They crunched the property numbers and decided they are ok with the remaining 5000 apartments raised to $3200 and it gives them a way to make the market-rate tenants happy by moving them into the capped apartments. It is a shrewd callous calculated move on their part. <br /><br />The mention in the Blackstone clause about hotels is deliberate too. The plan is a way for the likes of the hotel industry as Hilton to compete with the new tech business model introduced in 2008 with Airbnb. The "30 day "law they passed in 2010 is to block people from using Airbnb while keeping on track to churn apartments with 9 month leases of rent stabilized apartments to students. It is all about evicting renters and moving in potential buyers aka "new stabilizers". Eventually the property would be the market rate who buy their apartments, the "luxury time share buyers" and the NYU Langone Student and Medical short term stay Housing. The property is the elbow of NYU and Langone Medical Alley. <br /><br />2010 is a big year for the laws Albany passed, the money Albany took, and The Committee To Save New York. <br /><br />If the Mayor and City Council wanted to, they could have pulled off a compromise where Peter Cooper Village (who is considered the classier part of the property) becomes the 3000 luxury housing units for the Hilton-esque business model to compete with Airbnb and have Stuyvesant Town be a Penn South-like co-op of 8000 affordable housing apartments. But negotiating that would take balls to pull off.<br /><br />Happy New Year All.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837176580996082182.post-88073952665244293202015-12-31T15:28:06.398-05:002015-12-31T15:28:06.398-05:00Good news, I just got an email from the TA.
