Do not give them your hard earned money. If your upstairs neighbors are continuing their noisy harassment after being politely told, and after security and management has been informed so there are records of the awareness of the noise but it continues then that is deliberate harassment to get you to move out. That is a crime. <br /><br />Report it to 311 and give the neighbors names and address when you file the complaint. It is their job at 311 to take ALL noise complaints. Be sure to include the neighbor's names i your report.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837176580996082182.post-61472298197763744722016-01-06T15:32:26.759-05:002016-01-06T15:32:26.759-05:00Poster re: lawyers - My better half is an attorney...Poster re: lawyers - My better half is an attorney and I will say using an attorney for this problem is definitely on the rise in this city.

Carpeting had to cover 80% of flooring (as per lease) with Thick Padding and when management came to inspect (yes, everyone had to schedule a carpet inspection) they actually picked up the carpet to check on the padding. My upstairs neighbors for 20 years had wall to wall carpeting with padding and I never heard a sound from them.<br />Of course STPCGV won't turn back t he clock because of the insane turnover of apartments and the type of tenant now moving in, but if anyone knows the name and number of the attorney who was able to get on family's upstairs neighbor to put down wall to wall carpeting , please post it here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837176580996082182.post-14597758066573497932016-01-06T12:13:07.345-05:002016-01-06T12:13:07.345-05:00I'm breakin into my happy dance.

Yes..."TA BOARD DOES NOT EXIST! USELESS!"<br /><br />Yes, we all know that. Again, stop beating a dead horse. Again, who is going to start a new orgnanization? That organization will also have to have an attorney on retainer who is skilled in NSY RS law for the inevitable wave of MCIs to come. Waiting.<br /><br /><br />Meanwhile, back in the real world, will Blackstone be CR 3.0? Looks like it. Go to Yelp, management is starting again to respond to one star yelp reviews. Here is their response to that great negative review re the latest Carnival Cruise crap, “The Courts”:<br /><br />“please accept my apologies for the fact that the activities on The Courts are so disruptive, but thank you for your comments. I will be reaching out to you privately to inform you of any changes to the operation we may be able to make. Thanks again for your feedback”<br /><br />So it seems that Blackstone, despite many negative survey responses to the contrary, has been sold the bill of goods on how great these so called Oval “Tenant Amenities” are. And I’m curious, did anyone who posts here get asked to participate in a tenant focus group? I doubt it . I assume, just like when CWC/CR did their focus groups, the vast majority of the age demo they picked was students and just post graduate millennials.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837176580996082182.post-90673842907257187562016-01-06T05:56:19.906-05:002016-01-06T05:56:19.906-05:00NY Post reports today that Blackstone acquired $62...NY Post reports today that Blackstone acquired $625 million worth of air rights when it bought Stuytown and PCV.

Garodnick did the same things with his really bad apartment inspection bills. These two are about headlines for themselves (albeit with ineffective bills) while they further the REBNY agenda, small businesses replaced by global corporate chain stores, middle and working class renters replaced with lots of empty hotel-style living towers, real musicians / artists like those that came from the East and West Village replaced by global commercial pop artists / events. REBNY is ruining New York with its generic commercialization.<br /><br />Corrupt politicians and the corrupt system they run and operate, making laws for billionaires and against small businesses and people that they then use their appointed Judges to uphold in what is supposed to be the People's court is despicable. Brewer's bill is not only a stay of execution, it is a corruption of the courts. <br /><br />By design it will serve only to obstruct People and their Small Businesses from Justice. So politicians like Garodnick and Brewer can shrug their shoulders and tell their constituents their hands are tied because as Dan likes to say to constituents who are being screwed out of their quality of life and assets "wellllll, it's legal"<br /><br />The only reason it is legal is because the Dans and Gales are making laws to make it legal. Cuomo and his team and De Blasio and his team are REBNY owned and that pollutes our courts too since Cuomo and De Blasio appoint the Judges. <br /><br />http://nypost.com/2016/01/05/de-blasio-rewards-judge-who-went-soft-on-cop-hating-thugs/ <br /><br />Completely agree with 5:13 and 8:13, the injustice perpetuated by incumbents from Stringer court house cabal to Brewer and Garodnick REBNY favoring bills to Cuomo and De Blasio polluting the courts New York is in CORRUPT CRISIS.<br /><br />Anonymous said...<br />8:13 AM: that is a terrible injustice that is being perpetrated by these 421a landlords.

Our tax dollars go to every tenth rate piece of shit country in this world; we let in all the flotsam and jetsam of this world and they get everything for free, but we are being driven out of our homes by hungry, avaricious REBNY shit.
