It was already getting bad in the 60's at Marble Hill. If something broke, it stayed that way unless the tenant fixed it themselves. What I remember most though was the elevators constantly crapping out. I learned how to operate fire switches and bypass switches and how to release the doors and taught friends how to do it because ... well ... you had to.I can only imagine how bad it got when "deferred maintenance" kicked in for real. :( |
