Last year he was demanding all landlords submit to him a list of all the tenants in their building who smoke. That’s Nazi tactics “Submit to us a list of all ze Juden in ze building”.

I'm sure folks recovering from hip and/or knee replacement surgery will appreciate this approach.

Great...... The Paramedics will be delayed getting to your door, and getting you out of the building and to the hospital after you have a medical emergency.

Emergency services and the people waiting for their help will love it too.

People will get more exercise if we just go back to stone age or beyond, and we have to chase down our food.

This is what they do, eliminate all efficiency and productivity for their stupid ideas.

He is nuts..I can remember the big high rises..ugly, concrete, square in the former Yugoslavia..

My friend who lived there told me they didn’t have elevators.. Some of them were probably over 20 stories..

And to think, “name that Wienie” would probably be an improvement of the Czar of NYC!

“”If this building was five miles south in Manhattan it would be a luxury building,””

Give it a few years,,,, and it will look like Cabrini Green. But with pot gardens on the roof.
I had a 5th floor walkup on Brady St., in Milwaukee. First 10 days were kinda tough. After that no problem. But I’m someone who prefers the stairs. Used to run up and down them before skiing season started.

Wow, what’s next...we’re rounded up, shoveled into stockades and branded?

Then shipped to a vet who vaccinates us?

Screw him, Il Douche.

This is a gazillion heart attacks waiting to happen. This is a fact. There is no way I could make it past the first one and a half floors without dropping dead.

This should be called the “Bloomberg Torment the Cripples Campaign”.

It is based on the idea that the time of people who are handicapped is not important, so they should have to use slow elevators.

Could provoke a lawsuit from the elderly and/or the disabled - people who cannot walk up lots of flights of stairs. Violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Also, would make it harder for EMT workers who are carrying special equipment to get to people who are having a medical emergency.
