$600/mo to live steps from the Brooklyn Bridge? [0] I imagine the former occupants are furious they have been "saved" from that "horror story" they were so forcefully subjected to. I understand the fire code violations and that the other occupants of that building did not agree to live in a building of that density, so it is "not OK" in it's current form. But it is also not OK to have minimum size requirements for living quarters in a capitalistic society where the rents are limitless. You can't have one variable holding steady while the other related variable keeps shooting through the roof. The entrepreneur in this story was obviously filling a societal need by breaking the laws that he broke. [0] https://goo.gl/maps/rpCNVS23FBp5XMdQ6 https://goo.gl/maps/rpCNVS23FBp5XMdQ6
