Eric Adams

Brooklyn
borough president Eric Adams stepped outside the realm of regular
politics to add a much-needed dose of authentic personal outrage,
complete with profanity, to the ongoing scandal of substandard living
conditions in the New York City Housing Authority.
"The problem is not merely one cleanup person, one office employee, one manager, it is a cesspool of cultural indifference," Adams thundered before the cameras. "It should not take public pressure to increase the goddamn water pressure!"
He
was reacting to the news that a staggering 900 apartments in the
Brevoort Houses lost water after the pumping system failed on June 16.
According to Adams, NYCHA staff added insult to injury by engaging in a
cruel and stupid trick, closing out tenant complaint tickets after
restoring the water for a few short hours, so that the no-water problem
appeared to be less than a day old rather than several weeks.
