Samuel Gutierrez+FollowHotel Drama: Renters Left in the Lurch?Ever wonder what happens when a big-name landlord drops the ball? The Chetrit family, who own a trendy Williamsburg hotel, are being called out for allegedly overcharging renters and letting the place fall apart. The lender says they missed payments, ignored tenants, and even made deals without asking. If you’re renting, this is a reminder: always check your lease and know your rights—sometimes, even the big players get messy! #Business #RealEstateDrama #NYCNews00Share
john05+FollowNYC’s Bus Lane Crackdown Just Got RealBus lane blockers on Manhattan’s M2 and M4 routes are officially on notice—cameras are watching, and fines start at $50 (ouch). Repeat offenders could be out $250! The city says this move is speeding up buses and cutting down on crashes. With 38 routes now camera-enforced, it’s probably time to think twice before double parking or blocking a bus stop. Who else has seen those new signs popping up? #Transportation #NYCNews #BusLane00Share
CrystalCoyote+FollowFree Buses: Blessing or Headache?NYC’s free bus pilot made rides more affordable and boosted ridership by 40%, but here’s the catch: only 12% were new riders, and buses actually got slower! Plus, the MTA could be out $700M+ a year if this goes citywide. Also, two Harlem men just got exonerated after 30 years in prison for a crime they didn’t commit—finally, some justice. And the NYPD? A judge just blocked them from firing dozens of officers. Wild day in NYC! #Transportation #NYCNews #FreeBuses00Share
rmartinFollowingE. coli Scare at Fancy NY Grocery!Did you hear? Health officials just dropped a public health alert after E. coli was found in organic ground beef at Whole Foods—yep, one of NYC’s priciest grocery stores. The beef was sold nationwide, so check your fridge for any packs with use-by dates of June 19 or 20. No official recall, but if you’ve got it, toss it! Stay safe and double-check those labels! #FoodSafety #NYCNews #WholeFoods #Health01Share
jeffreyhester+FollowNYC’s Next Big Bet: Casino Skyscraper?A massive casino skyscraper could be coming to Manhattan’s West Side! World Trade Center developer Larry Silverstein wants to build a 785-foot tower with a hotel, restaurants, and the Avenir casino right by 11th Ave. and 41st St. No need for City Council approval since Silverstein owns the land, but they still need a state casino license. With other big players dropping out, this flashy project is suddenly a top contender. Would you want a Vegas-style casino in NYC? #NYCNews #CasinoLife #RealEstate #Finance10Share
Michael Alvarez+FollowNYC Salad Scandal: Rat or Not?Imagine digging into your lunch salad and finding... a dead rat?! That’s what one NYC woman claims happened at a Midtown Korean spot, but the restaurant says no way—security footage supposedly shows her leaving rat-free. Now the health department’s involved, and everyone’s pointing fingers. Would you ever eat there again, or is this a case of salad sabotage? Either way, I’m bringing my own lunch for a while! #NYCNews #FoodieNightmare #SaladScandal #WatercoolerMoment #Food00Share
