Stuyvesant Town-Peter Cooper Village Tenants Association

Join Your Peter Cooper Village/Stuyvesant Town neighbors
on an all-day free bus trip to Albany!

If we don’t convince lawmakers to renew and strengthen rent laws this year, we may not have the chance next year. Big real estate money is pouring into Albany to make certain we don’t have that chance.

That’s why tenant advocates, too, will be pouring into Albany on Tuesday, April 27th, to urge legislators to act now. Our delegation will meet with our Senator Tom Duane and Assemblymember Brian Kavanagh and join them in asking their legislative colleagues to renew the Rent Regulations a year early, repeal Vacancy Decontrol, and stop landlords from charging for Major Capital Improvements forever.

The Tenants Association is looking to fill three comfortable coach buses, one sponsored by Councilmember Dan Garodnick, another by Assemblymember Brian Kavanagh.

Dan will hold a rolling Town Hall meeting on his bus, and in Albany, we will strategize with Brian and Tom Duane and meet with other legislators whose votes we need in order to preserve and strengthen vital tenant protections in our neighborhood and throughout the city.

DATE: TUESDAY, APRIL 27
DEPARTURE TIME: 7:15 AM
RETURN: About 12 hours later.
PLACE: East Side of First Avenue and 18th Street

Hardened Albany veterans will lead the buses. We’ll have bottled water aboard but pack your own sandwiches and nibbles. The bus has its own facility but we’ll be making comfort stops as well.
