New York Apartment Strike Expands As Owners Move To Quiet
The New York building workers strike spread across most of the city as union leader Jaren Bambrick claimed rapid owner concessions. The Metropolitan Association of Building Owners, representing 110 apartment houses, agreed to terms including a weekly seven dollar raise and a closed shop, with workers ordered back to work. Bambrick announced the strike would extend to the Wall Street district if broader participation continued. Reports from the Realty Advisory Board disputed Bambrick’s tallies, estimating up to 270 buildings affected in the upper West Side, with less impact elsewhere. The Bronx and northern Manhattan tenants faced simultaneous walkouts, and negotiations continued between Bambrick aides and the building owners association.
