The former NFL-er was fined $20,000 by the city Buildings Department in 2021 for falsely claiming the building was empty when the work began, and not having a “tenant protection plan” in place for Kalmenson, according to DOB records.
Former NY Giants Lineman Chris Canty buys occupied NYC townhouse to convert to mansion. All tenants left except one who won't accept $45K buyout.

We gotta stop this breh
It’s nikkas in every borough that will slit your whole families throat for that much money. This dude ain’t got no certs he just wants to be difficult.

$45K is more than generous imo. The guy was a renter. It’s not a landlord’s job to give you almost fifty thousand dollars to help you move
apartments in NYC….in the boroughs….are like $2K a month so he essentially is getting two years of free rent. Now if he’s upset about losing a rent controlled apartment, he needs to be real with himself and admit he can’t afford NY anymore and move to a cheaper area. He can go to an affordable suburban area in a different state or he can choose a cheaper city like Philly or Chicago to move to. He’s very entitled imo. I’d take that $45,000 and move.

You do realize the prices are going up everywhere.......
Nikkas will defend the system until it swallows them up, then they want sympathy.

THat's not Canty's problem. Dude is a month to month tenant who doesn't own shyt. He about to get kicked out with $0.

That's wrong - especially if it's a rent controlled apartment. If it's rent stabilized, they can't evict him legally and have to renew the lease. I don't think Canty has any legal recourse to evict if the guy is up to date on rent and adheres to the lease. The easiest fix is to up the buyout.

I can’t feel sorry for someone getting $45,000 when I gotta pay rent every month
Yeah, until it happens to you

These entitled tenants should only get one year to remain after ownership changes

He's living in a condemned quality apartment. He has no utilities. His apartment is not up to code. It's infested with rats and the floors are rotted. It's not going to be long until something collaspes and he gets hurt or worse.
I don't understand how NYC deems the apartment livable to be honest.

Canty shoulda offered a 100K just to get it done with, now 5 years later and still hasn't really started the renovation. Losing money everyday
So Canty gotta give up more than $45k for this stinky looking fukk to leave when that offer was on the table four years ago?
And then Canty has had to pay fines because this dude is taking advantage of the system from every angle possible. So who’s the real bully??
I know people uptown who’ve been offered up to six figures to move out over the years. So it’s only right the upper west side would cost more to get tenants out. But this dude is a clown at this point.

The tenant is paying $2600 for a two bedroom on the UES? The juice is worth the squeeze at that point. Again - Canty should've stopped bullshytting and upped the buyout when he saw this guy was playing hardball. If he could've gotten the guy out legally it would've happened by now. NYC is super pro tenant in housing court. It's almost impossible to get someone out once they're in. Ask me how I know.
