You want to run, not walk, to your nearest telephone and call the
Metropolitan Council on Housing.  They're in the Manhattan phone book.
They're a citywide tenant union that supports and organizes local tenants.
One of their organizers hosts a talk show on WBAI, 99.5 FM, I think it's
on Saturday, at 1 PM.
