Residents say a private equity firm Meadow Partners bought the buildings on East 11th and 12th street and is aggressively displacing long-term tenants and hiking up rents.
East Village residents rallied Sunday against what they call the corporate takeover of their apartment buildings.
Some residents have lived as long as 40 years inside their cozy apartments in 305 East 11th and 310 East 12th in East Village, paying stabilized rents as low at $2,000 a month. But after a corporation, Meadow Partners, came in and bought the place, everything is changing. Residents rallied, claiming the rent of long-time tenants-- families and senior citizens-- is being hiked up by nearly 40-percent. Some are being forced out, their leases not renewed.
