There’s some thick irony here that the literal NYTimes did not cover this story. It’s a metaphor for how NYC systemically neglects the bronx. There’s no shortage of horror stories about buildings like this that have been defunded: 20+ stories with no working elevator or heat, which is illegal, but there’s no money or political will to fix it. It can get dire, and this story is a symptom of a broader problem, as usual.
