M At Beekman

"The Press" is not to be considered as "involved".
If you want to hire a new engineer, you can do so.
You can also enter that engineer's report into evidence in your lawsuit.

Another lawsuit may be the only way to "have those responsible brought to some kind of justice."
(What was the result of the first lawsuit and the engineer's report? Did depositions take place? Was the sponsor deposed?)

It usually takes a lot of time and costs a lot of money. You may then finally get the "issues" fixed.
Don't count on getting your legal fees reimbursed.
"Justice" is expensive.
The cost of your legal fees is not reimbursible.
Justice is its own reward.

Good luck.

NWT: What's the story there at M At Beekman?

I've lost track. There's some detail in one of the eight other threads Charlie's started about it, and it's come up elsewhere, e.g. http://streeteasy.com/nyc/talk/discussion/32079-lending-rules-in-small-coops-re-the-10-rule

O.K. thanks, NWT.

This is a condo your explanation does not apply

Yes, we know it's now a condo. It used to be a co-op.

Charlie: I'm all for resolving "issues", "safeguarding the building", "and the safety of the residents".
I have done so, within the Court system both with a co-op (I sued them) and a condo (they sued me).
Both of those responsible were "brought to some kind of justice."

However, you need to have a cause of action.
Please discuss with the attorney who advised you, that "you can now sue board members individual", as to what the objective of such a lawsuit and the result, might be.
Please do not pay that attorney any further fees, for consultation.

When was that and what does that have to do with issues and possible false claims as well the continuing decline of the building in my opinion no full super as far as I know mismanagement in my opinion by the board and managing agent they hired grogan & ass

Charlie: "issues and possible false claims...as well as the continuing decline of the building in (your)opinion no full super as far as (you) know mismanagement in (your) opinion..."

Good luck with that, Charlie.

This has been a learning experience for me as well and probably for the 13 people who sold and believe the worst is yet to come I am honor bound to see no-one has to deal with this again when it comes in my opinion M at Beekman incopenent and stubborn Board and again in my opinion dealing with incopenent and mean spirited grogans as a managing agent .I now have what I believe all my ducks in order hopefully have board in court hoping grogans out of this Buiness you are dealing people any and all criminal acts will be bought to proper goverment agenies Have a nice day sorry for any spelling grammar mistakes working on it Thank You

Charlie, it might be better to not mention your landlord history. The Bryant Hotel might come up, and you wouldn't want that....

>Charlie, it might be better to not mention your landlord history. The Bryant Hotel might come up, and you wouldn't want that....

wow, that would be as much an expose as c0lumbiac0unty and the asbestos

While I truly scared I believe in my humble opinion the grogans with there present actions will put themselves out of the real-estate Buiness and hoping to find information which will be much worse for them in opinion they are digging a whole for themselves you can beg threaten I am not lawyer you pushed too far now let's see what you are truly made crime does not pay just read a book possible libel tax law hacking criminal jail time for corrupting goverment offices it is not yelling or steaming or childish threats it is in planning and brain-power hoping to see all crimes within the statue of limitations fully be prosecuted I am going to enjoy .

Books to read recommendations time in prison tax fraud and evaluation betraying your moral legal duty to all the condo owners to safe-guard the building Grogan in my opinion present or past history you are not a qualified property manager this building and machinery grogans is only 7 years old .I believe 1 apartment recently went for 3.5 million grogans rat in building died rats in wall according to Zimmerman report and you not addressing the issues in the report someone gets hurt not being a lawyer grogans I believe it becomes criminal Good Night Thank You

Winter is coming I believe the building is becoming unsafe I put the blame with Grogan and ass John and Tim Grogan and the board who retained the grogans m at beekman That being said we will have to leave to court system this is becoming a labor of love and a matter of honor I believe life changing event. Thank you good night

I contacted x amounts goverment agenies so now I receiving death threats last time I stopped at the local percent to report the death threats they where not to helpful or friendly so get interesting now keep you up dated at least it is not boring Good Night Thank You

Precent

Also last my computer and cell have hacked at least interesting give credit just felonies

Wow, this is worse than a meltdown because a toilet seat is broken.

13 units have sold PHB is now for sale 6e is rented out of 23 included me in the unhappy the way are going that makes at least 16 out of 23 Grogan and ass and M at beekman the present board in my opinion are going to be famous for what they are doing to this condo building

Went out 10-30-14 930Pm super spray painting the metal work pitch black out no lights

Have the lights come back?

Now our 14th unit sold out of 23 .I believe justice is closing in on the grogans and our present board m at beekman our board president is a attorney not being a lawyer I believe he is held to a higher standard Thank You

Grogan management tortured a crippled woman she sued and won legal fees etc .It no longer a matter of Grogan mangling my condo building it is a matter of survival ,I believe many criminal act have taken place I started the process of using major tactics there is no budget because in my opinion as long as Grogan is in Buiness and at liberty I am in danger my threats alive or die whatever costs my goal is for Grogan to not be in Buiness any longer so he cannot torture anyone else and if I correct criminal acts occurred prison Thank You , I believe he shocked at actions that are in process

M at beekman is the name of our condo board 345 east 50 ny my 10022. The president of our board is an attorney ,I been told by the doorman he is quite famous he has seen on CNN ,He also told me he has orders not to tell the unit owners of any problems in the board which I believe is wrong also an attorney who contacted DOB on my behalf said when they come to the building the staff says they cannot give access the basement and all machinery should be easy

I believe m at beekman has a responsibility to make sure goverment officials have access to the building to check all areas as well as all machinery On 6-24-15 the Dob was here ,I was here to try to make sure they got some access which they did with the help of some unhappy unit owners ECB number 35153970x failure to maintain building walls or appurtenances defect noted served vertical hair line cracks open ups on rear cascade fire escapes at rear yard is ex excessively rusted also observed a section at sheet meter or hva

I believe these violations are only scratching the surface of the problems .In my opinion all metal work throughout building has been compromised ,fire escapes detached from the walls ,there engineer m at beekman when sued by sponsor Mr Zimmerman said the porches have issues that was in 2009 .I also believe foundation has to be checked due to years of flooding as reported to me by a staff member,in my opinion the building is becoming dangerous or is already dangerous ,I as believe only an engineer non basis appointed by the city can determine the safety of this building

I believe many improper possible criminal acts occurred during this situation only a judge can determine that as well if there was ant abuse of power a unit owner 2f we both agreed what had to be done I said lets go to condo meeting he said no I am afraid of the grogans he sold what to me is a major loss 14 units 1 for sale 1 was for sale and I am not happy with the situation 17 out 23 I believe that is a good news story august being a slow news hopefully it will be picked up quickly with power comes responsibility at the end of the day the president of the board as well of rest board are responsible for the Staff grogan as well as there actions

micheal schatzow is our board president he is also the Chief Deputy State Attorney for the city of balyimore x amount of time Grogan management called the police for access which is inproper procegure than sent me 2 letters threating me with the with the nypd went to internal affairs that ended all problems last night the police came to my house someone some sort of dispute took there names and badge numbers end of problem not being a lawyer I believe Micheal being the president of the Board is responable for the staff action grogans and any improper actions

Micheal schatzow is our board president ,I believe the action he and the board are taking are destroying this condo building. major violations were written by the dob which i believe is only scatching the surface 14 units have sold 1 for sale 1 was for sale spoke to her she is not happy as well as my self out 23 a good story possible corruption possibe criminal actions destroying a beauifull buiding I contacted rhe pess they are quitr interested I believe justice will come

quetions I would like answered why did dob and other goverment agenies have so a hard time getting in I believe Micheal being famous and powerfull attorney should be hold to a higher standard akin such as our former governor elliot spitzer and former president nixion ,also believe we all have to obey the laws of the city of nyc state of ny as well as all federal laws rich poor powerfull and regular people

Now the board of directors have voted to institute a increae 0f 15 percent from sept 1 2015 to dec 31 2016 .Which i believe is too little to late,I believe have requeted a new engineer report which i believe us quite reasonable considering all the prolems that have occured in this buidingnow electrical problems roof replacement repair and painting of fire escapes how manty times are they going to try to fix roof

John grogan of grogan and ass called me Monday needs to come in immediately or drill my lock out the same leak he had the super come into my home 3x in last 3 years as well as his licenced plumber I had someone check it as well when I wanted to change and update some plumbing in home grogan made it impossible after speaking to grogan stopped by 17th percent filed report against grogon of grogan and ass who is employed by our m at beekman ,the police agreed illegal if they call 911,From what I understand I not the first person grogan tried to bully and harass public information

Grogan of grogan ass which I believe is employed by m at beekman in my opinion is unprofessional and in my opinion incompetent I will the figures public later building 7 or 8 years old repaired roof many times which to me seems a great expense and trying to fix it again either you can do the job or you cannot instead of trying to unsuccessfully harass me try to address the major issues in this building major violations were written fact not fiction I hope one day all the properties grogan manages are investageted and people surveyed to see if treated in professional manner I will do what I get to see that happened

M at beekman is our board I understand he is an attorney of some acclaim so I believe he should be held to higher standard I notified him of grogan behavior which I believe is criminal so I believe our board and president are responsible for him since they retained there services

M at beekman is our board I believe we are facing the point of no return this would not be the first or last condo building to go bankrupt due to an incompiden and stubborn board idea since 14 have sold 2 for sale others not happy major violations allegations of harassment interview new managing agent to guide to try to save this condo building also which sued by sponsor they hired an engineer by the name of Zimmerman I do not believe they fooled his advice this time if there is still time to save this condo building get updated engineer report and this time do what he says

I believe our board president as well as the rest have opened themselves to great liabilities 7 or 8 years which to seems foolish actions .first they blamed the sponsor than apartment 2f now me major violations written 14 units sold 2 for sale others not happy out 23 .i believe the lability board insurance companies have excellent attorneys on staff I have a paper trail for anyone who is concerned in the end I believe all involved will be in court for many years with many litigants many reputation will be ruined as well as Buiness this my opinion it time for power of media when these things go to court the press does get involved I thing it is great story

huh

It might be gibberish, but this contemporaneous recording of Charlie's complaints may be a shrewd idea in case there's any litigation.

Grogan looking forward to the day when an attorney can articulate the information I complied about your organization actions in this condo building and what in my opinion is sheer incompetence homely examples of your behavior and capability in other building you manage will come to light Thank You

Good insight here

Attention Arthur I. Weinstein,

As the attorney who represented us in the law suit v. the sponsor, you're well aware of
the issues of M at Beekman. As well as an engineer report known as the Zimmerman report. I
believe the board known as M at Beekman never addressed the issues in the report properly.
Now several years have passed and I believe this situation is much worse and possibly
dangerous. I believe the first step in addressing the issues in the building is to retain an licensed
structural engineer. As you know they have tried time and time again to address the roof issue at
great expense, time and effort and due to the roof not being repaired properly, I believe major
flooding has done major damage to the building possibly beyond financial repair. Last time, I
believe was in 2015, $138,000. Now we have a new five percent assessment for the roof again
electrical work and middle work.

1. Roof needs a structural engineer to determine how to repair the roof once and for all.
2. I fear the condo known as Mat Beekman is becoming dangerous to the residence, the
employees, and the public at large.
3. Whole back of the building I believe needs to be repainted if water has not already got in,
it will, which brings mold issues. As you know being a condo lawyer, most insurance
companies don't insure building with these issue.
4. Middle work throughout the building has to be checked.
5. Foundation needs to be checked by a licensed structural engineer.
6. Cracks in the facade.
7. Insulation of the building needs to be checked due to the years of flooding.
8. I'm not worried about a leak here or there, I am worried about the structural integrity of
the building.
9. Has been criminal activity in the building, only a judge can decide.
10. I fear due to the actions and decisions made by the board known as M at Beekman. I fear
this condo complex is approaching the point of no return financially.
II. I know that you as the condo lawyer for this property will do your best to have a licensed
engineer check this building from top to bottom even if it means suing the board for this
financial integrity of all the owners plus the safety of all.
12. As you know or should know major violation written this summer and five percent
assessment for each of the owners, I leave too little too late.
13. I prefer communicating via email as soon as possible. My email is charl230@aol.com I
am truly worried about the safety of all.

Thank you,

Charlie Lewner
