To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Nancy Advincola and I reside at 1153 229th Drive South, Apt. 3D, Bronx, NY 10466, home phone 347-427-1329( available during 10:00-1:00 in the morning). The purpose of this email is because my family and I have been living at Edenwald Housing Complex for the past 12 years and as of the last 3 years we haven't been given a lease and we've handed in all the needed documents too. Now we don't owe the NYC Housing Authority a penny; but perhaps it's due to the fact that we continue to address this issue in an educated manner. Such as calling the media, having our story published in the newspapers, especially El Diario la Prensa numerous times and also having our story viewed on Telemundo Channel 47. Once the press started to investigate, the NYC Housing Authority denied that they were going to evict us.
Two months ago my family and I experienced the unpleasant encounter with Mr. Johnson, a Edenwald Housing Assist who had the nerve to start banging on our door and yelling at my Husband Carlos R. Advincola Sr. and I in front of our sons. Mr. Johnson was accompanied by another Edenwald Housing Assist and that gentlemen repeated to Mr. Johnson to calm down; but Mr. Johnson refused and at the end had to be dragged away from our apartment door. During all of this unnecessary incident, Mr. Johnson forced upon us documents hand made by Edenwald's Management Office stating that within 30 days we would be evicted. How can tenant be evicted if their paying their rent every month and on time. Instead of continuing to allow Mr. Edwin Rodriguez(Edenwald Manager and Mr. Johnson Housing Assist) bully us, we have continued to make this issue public, using every social website that we have access to ... Such as Facebook, twitter, Myspace, Blogger.com, Tumblr. and a great of others.
This menace of an individual called Mr. Johnson also came to pounding on our door on Monday, Nov. 18, 2012, at about 3:45. Since our building has strangers coming in and out of it, I always look out of my peep whole before opening the door. However, this inept individual named Mr. Johnson was covering his face with his hooded coat, pouncing the door with his fist and yelling his name in an angry way and he was also accompanied by a female whom didn't tell me her name. Due to my extremely serious health issues, I wasn't going to open the door.
The Edenwald Management Office located at 1145 229th Drive North, Bronx NY 10466, phone number 718-882-6900, especially by the Housing Manager Mr. Edwin Rodriquez that continues to allow an uneducated, unprofessional and is misogynist, I say this because when my husband of 24 yrs. & 6 mos. and our 2 sons went to the Management Office in order to address this matter in an civilized manner; Mr. Johnson was extremely disrepectful to an elderly woman in a wheel chair and after he conducted himself as an animal this ignoramus totally ignored us. After waiting for more than an hour or more we left. The reason why I'm informing you about the going on at the Edenwald Management Office is because my family and I aren't the only tenants ongoings this type of abuse, we've had numerous residents ask what they should do; because Edenwald Management Office is constantly accusing them of not paying their rent, taking them to court and not carefully checking that their rent is PAID.
Is this the protocol of the NYC Housing Authority? Or is Mr. Rodriguez(Housing Manager) and Mr. Johnson(Housing Assist) abusing their power? With this I'm going to conclude, all through the past week we've had certified letters and found bogus court paper letters in our mailbox. Monday, Nov. 26, 2012 was the supposed court date; however the copy; because we NEVER received an original document stated that if we don't own housing any money disregard this letter. We feel that Edenwald Management Office has a personal vendetta against us because we're bringing attention to the schizo behavior that's going on at that office.
Thank you for your time and cooperation, we hope & Pray that you find it in your hearts to come to the aid of not only my family; but the other silent tenants that don't wish to undergoing harassing tactics ... My husband and I have been calling your offices for more than a week; however the phones are ALWAYS busy ... We really need your organization's assistance! Can someone PLEASE get back to us RSAP? It will be greatly appreciated. Once again, here's our home phone number 347-427-1329 and our email too ...
