The man known as one of New York City’s “most notoriously negligent landlords” was briefly hospitalized following an attack at Rikers Island. Daniel Ohebshalom turned himself in to police on Thursday after allegedly failing to perform hundreds of court-ordered repairs on some Manhattan properties he owns. He was taken to Rikers where he’s expected to serve up to 60 days.
In the two buildings along West 170th Street, the city alleges that Daniel Ohebshalom and his company, Belmont Ventures LLC, have racked up 700 serious violations affecting health and safety of those who live there. As a result, Housing Preservations and Development Commissioner Adolfo Carrion Jr. stepped up action and issued a warrant. “We caught up with him. He’s facing $3 million in fines and penalties, and he’s going to jail for 60 days,” said Carrion.
