Workers at High Line Luxury Buildings Tell Management: New York Shouldn’t Just Be Livable for the 1%

As developers hike prices for luxury apartments to take advantage of the now-desirable real estate along the High Line, janitors and doormen who work in the buildings that buttress the park are not sharing in the good times. A penthouse recently sold for $6.8 million in a building that Mick Jagger and Nicole Kidman call home while in other buildings one-bedrooms go for $1.6 million. Meanwhile workers make as little as $11 an hour and don’t have health care coverage. The workers want one New York for #AllofUs.
