From City Limits:
LEGAL SERVICES OF NEW YORK: The central office of Legal Services for New
York City was open as of Monday, although a picture ID is required to enter
the area below Canal St. Our phones are mostly working. We are attempting to
gather what information we can. Some updates that might be helpful:
1. Evictions citywide have been suspended until further notice. Service of
notices of evictions are suspended until September 20. New information is
that notices of eviction in the "outer boroughs" served prior to September
11 will be re-served. Notices of eviction are not yet being served again in
Manhattan.
2. HPD's main office at 100 Gold St. has reopened yesterday. However, the
Central Complaint number is not operative. Heat/hot water and other
complaints should go through HPD's borough offices:
Bronx 718-579-6785
Brooklyn 718-827-1921
Queens 718-520-3420 or 3424
Staten Island 718-816-2340
Manhattan 212-234-2541 |
