Residents got a rude awakening when our elevators stopped
operating around 8 PM New Year’s Eve. Getting stuck in an elevator or climbing
up 12 stories in your Spanks ‘n Manolos is nobody’s idea of how to bring in the
New Year. Climbing down with a dog who wants to pee pee ASAP on the coldest
night of the year – also not fun. There was plenty of unhappiness and
inconvenience to go around. Many people called Menas emergency hotline. Two of
your board members spent their New Year’s Eve trying to troubleshoot the
situation with our emergency elevator repairman and on the phone with our building
superintendent John McLean.
At press time we are expecting explicit reports on exactly what happened with the
elevators. The board shares your frustration.
