A group of tenants from 207 and 209 West 107th Street chanted "No rent for rats!" outside their buildings yesterday, reaffirming the rent strike they began in June. The tenants, joined by State Senator Bill Perkins, say that the buildings' rat infestation is completely out of control and their landlord refuses to do anything about it. Hey, if they think they've got it bad they should talk to the Williamsburg tenants who started their rent strike yesterday, who were promised a doorman and didn't get one. [NYDN; previously]
