"I've long said that the only two ways to stop the abuses and negligence of the worst landlords in our city were to arrest them or take their buildings away -- and now, Daniel Ohebshalom has experienced both. He has spent years at the top of our Worst Landlord Watchlist, hiding behind other associates, but now his actions, and the harm he has caused, are clear.
"I commend the city for this decisive action -- accountability is the best route to improving landlord practices and the conditions at their buildings. We can’t stop at one building or owner – we need to change the systems that have permitted putting profit over people for too long, and impose severe consequences for severe negligence."
