"In 2011, Iron Stone purchased a slew of apartment buildings in Philly after the old landlord fell behind on payments. [They] acquire[d] buildings... right on the edge of West Philly's gentrification: ...they were ready to... "execute solid acquisition, operation, and exit strategies."... Since acquiring these buildings, life has gotten worse for their residents.... Meanwhile, Iron Stone created a new regime to keep people in line: surveillance, fees, and insults....
But tenants in Iron Stone owned buildings are pushing for big changes....On 08/29/2016, they went public, bringing fifty tenant-signed letters to Iron Stone that demand Iron Stone negotiate with the Philly Tenants Union so tenants can win decent homes, have their wins protected, and keep a voice in how their buildings are run."
As of 09/20/2016 neither the ownership or management have contacted the Philly Tenants Union in regards the signed demand letters.
