Construction workers, management companies and contractors harass an entire Cambridge MA neighborhood for three years during the ongoing $500 million renovation of the Harvard University Art Museum. City officials acquiesce in this ongoing abuse because Harvard officials deceive politicians saying construction has ended. It is a part of construction projects in urban areas. The strong harasses the weak. It could be worse.
[From article]
Workers allegedly left a dead cat and pigeons outside Rose Garofalo’s Bensonhurst home after she and her family stood up to a construction boss from D’Onofrio General Contractors Corp.
[. . .]
“They’ve thrown eggs at my door, too. I swear to God it’s like something out of the ‘Godfather’ movies,” Libby told The Post.
Work began on the Federation of Italian-American Organizations of Brooklyn’s new center on Benson Avenue in 2011, and a construction manager asked the Garofalos for permission to tear down the garage and a wall, the suit says. The family refused and the harassment and threats allegedly started soon after.
