Monday, Noon Press Conference at Duffield St.
After a long, long struggle Joy Chatel has been victorious and has saved

The other owners and tenants who still face eminent domain abuse by the city of
New York can and should now explain to the city that yes, development without
eminent domain abuse actually can happen.
