I can argue with the rhetoric. Its not true! Construction workers CAN afford to live in the Subsidized units that they build!
As owners are we to be happy that "RTC has been very successful in reducing eviction across NYC"? It just means that a bunch of low-end lawyers know just enough about the garbage, biased, Tenant-centric system we have, to allow judges to blackmail owners EVEN MORE OFTEN into accepting crappy settlements rather than issuing the eviction orders that they are entitled to. They are just kicking the problem down the line. A DROP IN EVICTION ORDERS ARE A SIGN THAT THE SYSTEM IS GETTING MORE BROKEN, NOT SOMETHING TO APPLAUD!
