People who call it the World War II Housing Act know what DHCR is really based on. We are still being controlled by the World War II Housing Act, it is simply what it is called (Sounds too wacky for you, look it up.). It was implemented because of the influx of solders coming back from the war. It was mostly meant for smaller towns that had a large influx of woman working in munition factories. The small towns suffered because of the lack of housing within them, but NYC never had a shortage but was forced to implement the program because it was a Federal Program. Whether you remember it or not is irrelevant, obviously you were not around when this archaic regulatory nightmare was instituted.

And yes even here in this great city we do have town meetings. (Your cracking me up) A town meeting references the format of a gathering, not it's location. And why is my math lousy. You should explain. And as things would have it I do some fiction writing. Published too. And I am a real landlord here in NYC it would just seem I know more about it then you do.
