Imagine having gas to your apartment shut off for seven months. That's the issue facing residents at one NYCHA complex in Manhattan.
Tenants at the Grant Houses NYCHA complex in Harlem are frustrated after learning the gas to their apartment will be shut off until July. Lauren Glassberg has the story.Tenants at a NYCHA housing complex in Harlem want some answers after they were notified this week that their gas will be shut off, not for a couple days, but for seven months.Last week, the cooking gas was turned off.
"Now they said it's a leak that had nothing to do with the building, that it's outside, but we're affected a long time. July is a long time," Jasmine said. In the meantime, each of the 226 apartments at the Grant Houses in Harlem has been given a hot plate -- which makes it a challenge to cook a meal for a family.
"It takes me forever to cook," resident Carolyn Scott said. "I cooked a big meal recently and it took me four hours to cook ... four hours to cook that one meal."
