State Task Force puts a stop to Brooklyn slumlords
A New York State Task Force reached an agreement with a notorious Brooklyn landlord for harassing tenants and engaging in unlawful practices in managing its buildings.
Greenbrook Holdings, LLC and its owner Greg Fournier settled with the New York State Homes and Community Renewal Commissioner RuthAnne Visnauskas and the Tenant Harassment Prevention Task Force for harassment of tenants in the 188 buildings it owns, which are located mostly here in Brooklyn.
“This settlement will bring relief to thousands of Brooklyn residents who are subjected to unsafe building conditions because of landlord neglect,” said NYC Corporation Counsel Hon. Sylvia Hinds-Radix. “The City and State will continue working together through the Tenant Harassment Prevention Task Force to protect tenants and hold accountable landlords who violate their rights.”
