In the fire stairs, a waterfall cascaded down all four floors, eventually infiltrating all 10 apartments in Brooklyn.
Tenants in Brooklyn are frustrated a week after flooding waters cascaded down into several apartments, ruining their homes and their possessions. Josh Einiger has the story.Tenants in Brooklyn are frustrated a week after flooding waters cascaded down into several apartments, ruining their homes and their possessions.Resident Sabrina Clery said she heard the rush of water around 2:44 p.m. on the Monday after Christmas.
"Water came all the way up here, splashed down here, I had about, I would say, eight buckets and I was emptying them," Clery said. The problem seems to have started with the sprinkler system on the building's roof which was busted during last week's awful cold spell. A fire code violation at the front door has led management to post a guard 24/7 to alert tenants in case of fire."They're just possessions and I'm glad nobody was hurt, but they're my possessions and I worked really hard for them. So to see them destroyed and to not have any real response from our building management, it hurts," Diltz said.
