Tenants of a rent-stabilized apartment building in Harlem announced a rent strike and new lawsuit against their landlord on Monday.
104-year-old Bertha Komor from Connecticut, checked off a wish on her bucket list when she got the chance to pet a penguin.
As fire devoured the upper floors of the five-story building, Davis and other tenants climbed down the fire escape to get out. They alleged that the landlord has a history of failing to comply with fire safety and housing maintenance regulations. Tenants are being organized by Tenants & Neighbors and represented by Manhattan Legal Services' Tenant Rights Coalition.
