Legal Aid Society attorneys protest dangerous elevators at Downtown Brooklyn headquarters
Despite temperatures that reached 90 degrees, attorneys for the Legal Aid Society in Brooklyn were outside of their Downtown Brooklyn headquarters protesting the dangerous conditions of the elevators in their building.
“The elevators have become really hazardous,” said Emily Eaton, who has worked in the building for two and a half years. “The elevators get stuck all the time. Just this morning someone was stuck in one for an hour. The doors regularly open between floors and it’s scary that people are trapped inside or forced to crawl out.”
