Eric Abrams, the last holdout tenant in a single-room-occupancy building, faces relentless pressure from his landlord as construction continues around him, highlighting housing struggles.
Robin LoGuidice, Mr. Abrams’s lawyer, stated, 'This is the worst situation I've ever seen, said Robin LoGuidice... These kinds of stalemates can happen in New York, where developers seeking to raze or renovate buildings collide with obstinate tenants.'
Andrew Scherer, a professor, explained that 'there is no obligation for the tenant to move... the tenant holds a lot of the cards. There are solutions that could work, but it is a matter of voluntarily agreeing to those.'
