lol... Violation of condo bylaws.

I wonder if anyone is going to jump into this thread and tell us that condo associations/home-owner associations are stealing our freedom.

What makes this a wonderful New York story is that "the building" didn't give a damn til he began to use his unit for illegal purposes, stiffing (ouch) the association for maintenance charges, and generally violating his contract with other owners.

I've read quite a few relevant contracts, and they are very clear on what one can do. Everyone buying in such a building does so with full knowledge of this.

In my Sodom co-op, the least troublesome owners are a couple of elderly gay men....
