Efforts to save the birthplace of Hip-Hop culture proved successful as the New York Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) rejected a proposed sale of 1520 Sedgwick Avenue to a developer Mark Karasick.

According to Sen. Charles Schumer, the HPD cited the fact that current rents could not be sustained if the sale of the property had gone through.

The decision is the latest chapter in the struggle for Sedgwick Avenue tenants to preserve their building.

Tenants enlisted Hip-Hop co-founder DJ Kool Herc last year to help save the property after word got out that the 100-unit apartment building’s owner planned to leave an affordable housing program known as Mitchell-Lama.

The Mitchell-Lama program presents owners incentives that include low-rate mortgages and tax breaks in exchange for charging tenants low to moderate rents over a certain period of time.

With the HPD’s decision, tenants have the chance to negotiate directly with the owner, Schumer stated Monday (March 3).

The building has also been deemed eligible to be listed on national and state registers of historic sites.

damn.


Police in Gwinnett County, Georgia have arrested a 17-year-old boy and charged him with murdering his mother and two young sisters, one of whom was the daughter of rap star Juvenile.

According to reports, police have accused Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr. of shooting his mother, Gwinnett County Sheriff's Deputy Joy Deleston, 39.

The high school sophomore also shot and killed Deleston's two daughters, Micaiah, 11, and Juvenile's four-year-old daughter, Jelani.

"It is heartbreaking to lose someone in the way that we lost her," Gwinett County Sheriff Butch Conway told WSB-TV Channel 2. "I am very angry that these three lives were so violently taken from us in a totally senseless and cowardly act."

Terrell is currently incarcerated at the DeKalb County Jail, where he faces three counts of murder, three counts of aggravated assault and other charges.

My condolences go out to Juvie and his family.
