I was surprised to see this. There are many of us that have issues with this developer. He seems to be untouchable. Please send me your information so that we may get together and publish something concerning developments that he builds and then walks away. I know someone who is willing to help with this issue.

He seems to be untouchable since he has donated so much money to our Governor. Sadly our elected officials are aware of this and yet fail to address this since there is big $ with real estate packs and this developer is a big donor. This should be brought to the attention of the Attorney Generals Office.

Agree with all comments, but realistic about the chances. This is a long haul to get politicians to stop backing certain developers. some in my building want to wait for the politician to put 'pressure on DC to fix mistakes. If we do that we will wait forever.

BD--That may be true (waiting forever), but giving up and giving in and taking care of the problems that the developer created, is why those of us willing to fight the fight and demand help from the politicians and the media, is the reason we wait forever. The developers know that if they stall long enough, we will go away.

Unless your building is magic and lasts forever, waiting forever means the building will fall apart before you get political help. Dont you have blueprints or some proof of the problem? the evidence of his screw up wont go away if you fix it. That is as long as you have some proof.

BD:
I am sure we all have blueprints, and engineering reports to prove the defects and you are correct, if we fix, we will never get help, but it doesn't seem like we will get help since so many hands in so many pockets. Exposure is something that has to be done. This blog is great, but the one problem is, how do we all get together and finally do something?? It seems no one wants to give out their information on a blog and that's understandable. Is there a way that someone can set up an email, not with their name so as not to give away who they are and then some of us can reach each other and start a dialogue with the media and others.

You misinterpreted. I did not say if you fix your building you will never get help. My advice is fix the building, hang on to proof of mistake, eventually you may get something back based on proof. If you sit on your hands and wait for pols to take action before you fix, your in trouble. building will crumble. Best of luck.

I am answering your above blog. I didn't misunderstand, but fixing the errors before we hold developer accountable costs LOTS of money. How can we obtain that kind of money without hurting shareholders by making their homes unaffordable to live in? Any borrowed money has to be paid back, thereby the developer can turn around and say, it's fixed, we're not responsible. How does one deal with that?

How do I reach you? I need to be anon on this blog for now and can't be the Norma Rae that I want to be, yet?

There is someone at the DNA that will do a story on this Developer, but we need to get all of us together and have a meeting. I know no one wants to give personal information out, but how do we all get together to accomplish this? The AG knows all about this Developer, complaints have been filed years ago.

Can you give me your email address? i can not emphasis how corrupt this all is. Public Advocate Deblasio has been useless, elected officials in my neighborhood are all out to lunch.

Just setting up this new email. Try within a day: decarey101@hotmail.com

Great, will try tomorrow.

It bounced. Will try again tomorrow.

I am very interested in discussing this matter further. I am currently involved in his application to receive public subsidies for another private development. It blows my mind that a developer like this is not only allowed to operate, but also receive taxpayer dollars to do so. Anyone wishing to contact me may do so at this address naou191@aol.com and I will give you my personal one after.

Have been trying but keeps bouncing back.

Because this is a blog it is difficult, I would love all of us to get together and expose this issue. That is the issue, how do we do that? If I can, I will try to figure out how we can all get in touch with each other, please, if you can think of a way advise. It is an important issue and if we can get an article in the Media that would be a step in the right direction. With the election around the corner, we need to try to get people in office that will help. Of course, that's wishful thinking, everyone that's running is not worth much.
