Hi,
I have lived in a doorman building in the Bronx for 4 years and have always had a key which lets you into the front and side service doors. A few weeks ago they decided to change the front door lock, sent a notice to the tenants and they didn't provide us with a new key. When I asked for a copy of the key, I was told 'no' because there's a doorman there, He is a doorman not security. If there is someone following me and the doorman isn't there for whatever reason for that few minutes - they told me to go around to the service door (where it's dark at night).
I was told that because it is a doorman building the tenants to do not need to have a key. Is this true? Is this legal? I feel that it's putting my safety at risk.
