According to an $8 million Manhattan civil suit, the new landlord of two adjacent Midtown buildings is using the Chinese mafia to intimidate tenants into leaving. One tenant says that a guy followed her to work, claimed to be affiliated with "a very large company in Hong Kong," and threatened to chop off her neighbor's arm. The landlord, also Chinese, is shielded behind an LLC but apparently has plans to convert the buildings into a hotel. [NYP]
