It's the main reason why Penn Plaza was torn down. Between asbestos abatement, old rotting galvanized pipes, dangerous aluminum wiring, aging appliances, worn out roofing, and worn out HVAC systems, it would be pretty much impossible for the owners to repair it without moving people out (mainly for asbestos), and without having to substantially increase rent to cover the renovations.

Its the same ones that scream that the city should build more homeless shelters, without thinking about where any of that money would come from.

Also the same ones that scream that schools are underfunded while they also bitch about their property tax assessments.

You know, the kind that want everything, but don't want to be the ones to actually pay for it.
