Rose Sylvester, 48, says she fears for her life. For the past year, she has been watching the vertical cracks running from the basement to the roof of her apartment’s building, fearful that it would collapse.
“I’m letting the building speak for itself,” she said, while offering a guided tour of her home, at 8 East 110th Street, off Fifth Avenue, in East Harlem. “Just look.”
