The city won $4 million through three lawsuits against Daniel Ohebshalom, or Daniel Shalom, and his business affiliates, Adams announced on Thursday.
The Office of Special Enforcement netted $1.1 million from one of those lawsuits, according to the city, for outstanding fines regarding"tenant harassment and illegal short-term rentals" in Ohebshalom owned buildings in Hell's Kitchen and midtown.
“It’s like a horror movie. Literally Hollywood could rent it out as a horror movie,” Marc Kessler said. “This is not a secret. Hell, we are not quiet about it.” Last week's settlement follows to lawsuits from the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development that brought in $3 million for ignoring court orders and racking up 650 housing code violations on just two properties in Washington Heights.
