The article details a lawsuit filed by tenants of a supportive housing building in Los Angeles, alleging neglect by the owners and property managers. Tenants report severe issues, including lack of security, hot water, and functioning elevators. Many residents face dangerous living conditions, increased health risks, and some have suffered injuries due to neglect. Initially opened with high hopes for sustainability and community support, the facility has turned into a site of disillusionment, prompting legal action for better living standards and accountability from management.
"Tenants say the building has fallen into disrepair and lacked security for months at a time, allowing outsiders to wander into the property, resulting in break-ins, drug use and fires in stairwells."
"One tenant who uses a wheelchair told The Times she had to crawl down the stairs like a child. Another tenant said he suffered a stroke after carrying groceries up six flights of stairs."
