Tenants of a Chestnut Holdings-owned apartment building rallied outside of a courthouse in Brooklyn on Tuesday, demanding action and debt forgiveness for their living issues.
These tenants say they were neglected and that their apartments remained in disrepair. Some even took to not paying rent in protest.
“We clean the building ourselves,” said Mildred Walters, one of the angry tenants. “We paint ourselves, we paint our apartments ourselves, we do all the repairs.”
