Greenbrook Tenants Find Powerful Ally in Chuck Schumer

Tenants fighting the private equity-backed landlord on a buying spree across Brooklyn gained a powerful new ally last week when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer signaled his support.

The most powerful man in the United States Senate joined tenants just a few blocks from his own apartment on Oct. 15 to blast the real estate company, which now owns over 100 buildings in the borough, for its “predatory” practices.
