Brooklyn, NY -Tenants That Live In Slum, Charge Landlord Never Even Visits Their Neglected Building

Brooklyn, NY - East New York residents charge, that - the same man whose hotel in Clinton Hill was shut down by police two weeks ago - Moses Fried, never visited the 3 story building he owns at Blake Avenue and Hendrix Street, and all calls for repairs go unreturned.
The bldg next door, also owned by Fried, was gutted by fire and is now a rodent-attracting eye-sore.

"The sidewalk was horribly maintained," said lawyer Reid Wissner, who won a $902,000 lawsuit against Fried in May after a customer at the building's bodega tripped and was injured.

Fried's property next door is worse. Neighbors were surprised when the long-abandoned structure at 808 Blake Avenue caught fire around noon May 23. Firefighters said the blaze was suspicious, and is still under investigation.
The boarded-up shell sits amid garbage, and City housing officials cited the lot for attracting vermin.
