Upstairs Neighbor from Hell

TAFT Housings

I live in Robert H. Taft housing in East Harlem. I have a neighbor who has been terrorizing my elderly mother and I in the apartment above us, on the 12th floor. This guy has no respect or human decency and has been doing this now for over 2 years. He literally follows us around in our apartment and intentionally makes all types of noises, from loud bowling pins dropping, to banging on what is perceived to be a metal pipe with metal instruments.

I can be trying to get some sleep and all throughout the night leading up to the morning he is one step ahead of me, and continues to make noises. Whether it's moving furniture all throughout the day and night, to drilling and now smoking or letting off a distinct foul smell and odor which disrupts us from using the bathroom as we would like. His guise or at least what Taft management says is that the people in Apt. 12F are an elderly couple, we are not buying that nonsense. I have documents dating to last year on how many times I have had to contact 311 for the noise and every time supposedly NYPD comes no real solution is provided. The management office continues to take a passive approach in dealing with this issue. We've even contacted PSA and they too have done nothing.

It's to the point where we believe this guy is spying on us, and has the capabilities or devices to do these things.
The superintendent and his maintenance workers went up to see if there was a foul leak coming from his bathroom, and he provided access to that, but as soon as they made an attempt to gain access to his bedroom, he was spooked out and panicked telling them NO.

So again, this is not the way a tenant who has lived in housing for over 30 years should have to live.

It's unfortunate that there is nothing being done about this matter.

If you would like to contact me feel free to contact me via email at [email protected]. I appreciate your time and listening to our concerns.

Foul smell and Loud noises intentionally

TAFT Housings


I live in Robert H. Taft housings in East Harlem. I have a neighbor who has been terrorizing my elderly mother and I in the apartment above us, on the 12th floor.

I can be trying to get some sleep and all throughout the night leading up to the morning he is one step ahead of me, and continues to make noises. Whether it's moving furniture all through out the day and night, to drilling and now smoking or letting off a distinct foul smell and odor which disrupts us from using the bathroom as we would like. His guise or at least what Taft management says is that the people in Apt. 12F are an elderly couple, we are not buying that nonsense. I have documents dating to last year on how many times I have had to contact 311 for the noise and every time supposedly NYPD comes no real solution is provided. I have video records of the loud noises that this tenant continues to make. Even, when I enter my bedroom he follows me there and continues making noises, at times it is faint and other times it is loud. The management office continues to take a passive approach in dealing with this issue. We've even contacted PSA and they too have done nothing.

Weed Smoke

I have the "honor" of residing in West Brighton on Staten Island. The entire 8th floor smell like a weed dispensary almost every weekend. I've been experiencing head aches, itchy eyes and nausea, from the constant stream of smoke that drifts into my apartment. NYCHA's "Smoke-Free" initiative is complete B.S. The tenants obviously don't take the rules seriously, and management makes no effort to enforce them. People shouldn't have to live like this.

WHY DO YOU HAVE THESE TYPE OF PEOPLE LIVING HERE. I FEAR FOR ME AND MY FAMILY LIVES. There are people who live in 14A who play music. I knocked on their door and tried to talk to them and they told me they pay rent and can so what they want. DO SOMETHING.

NYCHA - NO HOT WATER

Every morning I have to submit a ticket for NO HOT WATER. I have back problems and cannot heat up water to carry it to the bathroom in order to wash myself. I need the hot water to shower in the morning in order to get some relief from my back pains. I reside in The Bronx, Pelham Parkway. Seems like management does not take the hot water issue seriously as this is everyday. By law they need to provide the services needed This is becoming a health issue.

1780 1st Ave Apt 14F Holmes Tower Noise Harrassment

I am writing about my noisy upstairs neighbor. She is banging on the risers with an object in my living room. It is annoying. Someone is helping her. This is everyday, has been going on for over 6 years. I bought documents into my management, was told to call 911 by my Housing Assistant. I am not going to do that. My life is not threatened. These are smartasses, it is to annoy me. In my bedroom they are using some kind of gadget to make loud snapping noises. This throughout the day. I go out, come back, they continue. I cannot get any sleep. They will start in the mornings at 7:00am, continue at 1:30am in the morning, then 3:30am in the morning. Nothing is being done about this. My former manager Mr. Diaz took them to Court over this some years back. This same woman was on probation for a year. Mr. Diaz is no longer our manager. I could not show up to Court because I was sick at that time. These disrespectful tenants never do this in the Summer Months. They start as soon as the heat comes up, I cannot make this up. Are they stupid enough to think I believe they are the Super. I used to hear banging many years ago, I don't hear that anymore, haven't heard it in a long time. The noise would come from the radiators, not the risers. I have a right to live in my apartment in peace & quiet within reason. Normal people play Music or their TV, not bang on the risers with an object. I used to think this woman was crazy, but she's not, this is to annoy me. If you can stop all Summer, you can stop in the Winter Months also. The manager needs to enforce this rule. She is continuing to get away with this. My Housing Assistant is doing nothing also, she told me, let me know if she does it again. It is everyday! Please do something about these non-human people. I live in 1780 1st Ave Apt 13F. I cannot talk to this woman, tried that, she lied to the Police that I pushed her, I know better than to do that. They came to my door, told me is she would have had bruises, I could have been arrested. She filed a false Police Report. My manager name is Aida George, the assistant manager is Liping Tsaun, and my Housing Assistant is Delores Seabrook. They all came to my apt, but it is still going on. Dated 10-29-18..

Upstairs neighbor bathroom leak

This is RIDICULOUS! I swear I think NYCHA is trying to get rid of me on purpose. Why else would they continue to ignore my complaints about the upstairs toilet leaking problem?? For 3 YEARS I've had a leak problem. They seem to ALWAYS come back with "pipe problems from another neighbor" and not do a DAMN THING! Tonight a pipe definitely broke upstairs and not only did it FLOOD my bathroom AND kitchen but ALSO MY BEDROOM!! WHAT THE ###?! I work AND pay rent EVERY month ON TIME.I seriously cannot say the same for the people who live above me. THIS IS ###.

Lillan Wald houses SUCK!

You'll be hearing from my lawyers!

very rude and inconsiderate neighbor

i live @ 70 Gouverneur St. (Vladecks) and have a neighbor @ 6F who is taking over a section of NYCHA ground as if her own and threatening us that she will remove all the plants in this garden (on the street-side of Gouverneur) right away. She hasn't produced any paper work that she has the spot to start planting. We on the other hand have been doing what we can to get the soil fertilize. Which no one else in the building has done for at least 13 years, and now out of nowhere because a son of hers has died a month ago, she wants the garden spot all for herself to plant flowers and a mortuary honoring him. We our selves have not received any notices for renewing the garden nor were we told or notified that renewal was necessary. During these 13 years we have tried and finally succeeded to get plants growing again; only to have this woman of 6F to take it away when she has her own garden spot that is located in front of the building 2 the address above. there is no phone number of to whom we can contact with NYCHA gardening.
Any help and or assistance would be greatly appreciated on this nasty outtake.

Nasty Neighbours

I reside at 2065 Dean Street Brooklyn, NY 11233. I will like to bring an ungoing problem to your attention,as of recently the new neighbour that moved in across the hall from me in apartment 3B have been the most obnoxious,inconsiderate,vail human beings I have ever encountered in my whole 31 years of living.They think this is their private home and have no consideration for myself and other neighbours.I am unclear as to exactly how many people live in this apartment as I have seen many different people in and out,I have also witness about 10 kids at a time playing in the hallway that looked to be all under the age of 10.The kids themselves have no behaviour they are quite rowdy and seem to have no decorum.While they play in the hallway they can be heard from inside my apartment,they bang on my door with their balls,hand etc and when I brought this to the attention of their parents nothing was done.Why should of have to put up with such a disturbance in what is suppose to be the comfort of my own apartment.They play loud music at all hours whenever they feel,they are always in the hallway hanging out and when they are finish smoking,drinking and eating their garbage is being felt in the hallway.They have been a major contribution to the disgusting state the hallway on the 3rd floor.They are clearly in breach of many of NYCHA's rules and regulations eg.1.Conduct or behaviour that presents a danager to the health and safety of neighbours 2.Poor housing keeping 3.Behaviour that is considered to endanger the peaceful occupation of other residents and 4.Smoking. I have also witness the police warning them about this behaviour.I do feel very much unsafe living next to neigbours like this as they have so many people coming and going and the constant strange charactors hanging out in the hallway.This is not the type of enviroment I find adequate or becoming for me to be raising my 11 years old son in.

No smoking as of july 30, 2018

Does the new no smoking rule apply to marijuana smoking as well. My father lives in senior housing and is surrounded by individuals who use the tables and seats for seniors and smoke from the morning to night. Nobody does nothing. Seniors are too afraid to complain. So the no smoking rule apply to marijuana smoking as well? Ex: Lobby, staircase, individuals who do not live there. Security does nothing. They are afraid of any retribution.
