I'm a tenant and victim of Common Ground predatory treatment of seniors with disabilities. The only thing they understand is being dragged into court, before they ever comply with New York Executive Law 296 18 (2). In 2014 their Schermerhorn House was the subject of an NYPD investigation, triggered by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The direct result of them trying to cover up the inappropriate touching of three under aged girls at their Brooklyn Ballet school. They transferred a building director to Manhattan in an attempt to throw the police investigation off track.
