"Before they evict anyone"
right smh
I hear you Word up
I think he was referring to those who did not pay rent since he said before they evict someone they make sure to help the tenant who is unable to pay the rent.
I don't really trust NYCHA selling these developments out to private developers. NYCHA probably has been mishandling money all these years and now that it's time to do the work they don't have the funding so they want to sell out to developers willing to do the renovations. Where will low income have to live if they keep selling projects? Ijs
Oh your 100 percent correct they mismanaged money and give contracts to their friends way over what it should cost.
And these new management are gonna kick ppl out really fast, unlike nycha who will let you throw diapers out the window
@@john214351 Right..They'll increase rent when private developers take over. We need more about real affordable housing for working and low income..NYCHA needs to get their shit together. They got scaffolding sort mg over damn buildings for a decade..with no work being done...To get anything done you gotta call continuously or get the media involved.
@@719kai719 and you know how much to keep that scaffolding per day??
A lot.
It's all racketeer business
@@john214351 I've always wondered why they would have that scaffolding up so many years without work being done..obstructing tenants view and wasting space. They really need someone to hold NYCHA accountable for their crap and get people in those high management leadership positions that actually give a damn. Get rid of the self serving opportunists just greasing their own pockets.
hold the phones, isn’t Rick Gropper the owner of the apartment building in the Bronx fire that took 17 lives?! Jan 2022
The section 8 is only for the building not the tenant. This is the end of affordable housing ppl. Say no to the blue print and yes, to the green new deal.
Trickery is what it is.
Private Developers do what they want.There are plenty of people living in Bk NYCHA who didn’t qualify for the RAD program in there building and so many vacancies due to private companies.This is a double edge sword for the working class & fix income elders sadly.
No there's a section 8 voucher you can have to pick and choose where you want to live that's section 8 approved.
Those new renovations aren't for the tenants, otherwise they would've been done years ago by NYCHA. Public housing sits on prime real estate/location, and built solid (if an apt catches fire it won't spread to the next). I grew up in the Smith projects. Check out where it is, and what it's near. It's just one reason why private developers are salivating.
Smith Houses is one of the top five developments in all of NYCHA. The residents were pleasant and the grounds staff did their best to keep it up.
Of course it wasn't about the tenants living in NYCHA, but they couldn't do it back then because they didn't have the Funds for such renovations. But today they now have the funds due to partnership with developers of the PACT program. Lets see what happens.
I live in the Independence Towers building and thrme Williamsburg Housing Perseverance LP are kicking people out of their two bedroom apartments to one. If you don't do that they Wan you to pay $2,255 or they will evict you. The changing of the kitchen, floors and bathroom...tucking scam. These buildings are for the rich now, not the people who need theses apartmsnt.
who need *these apartments.
Something fishy about this... why are private companies so eager to work with NYCHA and all its issues?
Unlike NYCHA, private companies have to turn a profit and will hold their employees, maintenance crews, and tenants accountable.
NYCHA is money hungry.
Very soon this section8 apts affordable housing will want to deal wit upper middle class nd the rich...
They already have.Look online smh it’s sad.Affordable housing site shows.
The put lip stick on that building smh cause the guts is full of sssht.
To Evict everyone
They need to do Red Hook in brooklyn
Finally progress, cause I'm tired of playing Bob the builder in my nycha apartment, to anyone with a problem pay y'all rent or bon voyage ✌is time to evolve. 🙂
Pretty much! I grew up in NYCHA and there’d be people only paying $100 a month rent and be having 6 or 7 months back rent. My grandmother who worked had to pay the ceiling rent, and had no issues staying current. If you didn’t pay your rent, then you don’t deserve to stay, it’s as simple as that.
I used to live in apartments growing up
Those NYCHA houses need serious upgrades to modernize because the conditions are deplorable and a health hazard and disgusting ever NYCHA house needs to look like the new ones because the old one is stuck in 1970 not modernize
That is good.some time housing authority people is ok and same time the housing authority not ok.
As I sit here I look at this development and I cry because even though my development is not that bad but I need to be in a housing project like this I'm in grant houses and I am in a domestic violence situation and I need a transfer but I don't want to transfer somewhere where it's worse than where I am now I want to know I'll be safe but I also would like heat and hot water so if any applications available I would appreciate you letting me know so I can go through the procedure I did put in for a transfer twice and it was closed twice without explanation so I'm supposed to do it again but I want to be in somewhere safe and clean like that but I heard there's no availability there as I would have thought
You should get a police report and take it to the NYCHA office directly or contact a Domestic Violence Victims Advocacy type organization that might be helpful in getting you a transfer. I know some women have gone into.DV shelters and gotten decent housing that way. It seems that you would be a higher priority for transfer considering the circumstances. As far as transferring to a nicer project I don't know if it's ever really possible to know if any project is going to be better) worse ..or about the same unless you speak to current tenants..I hope it all works out for you
They to do Jamaica houses projects in queens
No they don’t we good
I suppose it
Good. Better at Throwing out all the riff raff.
These locations were chosen based on the worst buildings imagined. This isn't like hitting the lotto, the neighborhood is still trash. ...................................#STOPYABLOODCLOTCRYIN
Facts
They should have gave the tenants the dignity every human deserves by making these upgrades consistently over the decades.
Get out of NYC so can experience what true quality of life is. NYC is a joke!
What you pay for is what you get. 🤔
