Awesome, Marlene Krauss now has a second opportunity to show here business skills. BRING BACK THE BARDS!!! Don’t let you emotions rule your brain Marlene. The Bards were making money. All you’ve made is enemies.

I heard that the dude went rogue and was telling tenants all sorts of impossible crap. Crap that will come back to haunt Elder & Kruass once the truth comes out.

Do you think they can find some other loser to take on this job? Because the protests are just going to get louder. I’m with Scott Griffin — I will fight this fight until the Bards return.

I only hope Andrew takes the rest of his scurvy crew with him. Right out with the trash where they belong. They’ve done more than enough damage.
For one, Arnold Tamasar isn’t fit to tongue-bathe toilets in the Hotel Chelsea nevermind specialize in them, and Larry McLaughlin is a disgrace to his peers, doctored-up construction permits and all, one has to wonder if he has any professional scruples.LikeLike

Way to go Andrew. A real pleasure to have never made your acquaintance. You’ve done a real disservice to everyone and everything you’ve encountered here.
No worries, mate. We’ll make sure your story gets told.
And retold.
Every sickening detail.LikeLike

When I saw Tilley’s fake blond hair I knew he wasn’t going to keep the job. Tilley was himself just a facade, no wonder he had no hesitation gutting the Hotel’s interior.

It’s amazing that white people have enough time on their hands to “protest” bad management in a hotel. I bet you they don’t give a damn about what is truly happening with real New Yorkers that are Black and Hispanic in a city that provides crap jobs and worst housing. What is it, you guys want to be known as the past “artists” that lived in the hotel? Well all of you are just living a false dream that borders on hypocrisy. Many of you live very financially comfortable lives and what to give the impression that you are a struggling bohemian/artists. Please cut your nonsense and move out and push for the city to make this hotel a place for truly struggling New Yorkers that need housing. Maybe you will be known as real activists. Stanley Bard is probably happy that he doesn’t have to deal with a bunch of wannabe artists/bohemians anymore. Hyprocrites!

Tilley went out with one last scumbag move — firing one of our best Maintenance guys (if not our best, and a just plain all-around good person) on his final day, and justifying it with even more lies. For instance, since when does the Hotel refuse employees a bed to ‘crash’ in when they are not able to drive home? How about ‘all the time’, both under Bard and under Tilley himself. Lies lies and more lies to cover up Tilley’s unsavory acts. We all know he was fired because he belonged to the Union and was therefore harder to fire for no reason, like Tilley had done to non Union employees like Jacob S, for instance, while keeping other non Union hires around to harass both guests and tenants with their quippy little attitudes. At the end of the day, Tilley himself brought nothing to the table but his social security number – assuming he’s got one.
Its lonely out there Tilley, but you really didn’t have to take one of ours along with you. Honestly, now. As if its a coincidence that you quit your job the same morning you grabbed one away from a person who needed it, and kept this place running. Not all employees were earning hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. A lot of them need to hold onto their jobs. Karma is going to tear you a new one for pulling that stunt.
Anyway, Bard will just hire them all back because they, unlike you, know how to run the Chelsea Hotel.
GOOD RIDDANCE.LikeLike

Rejoicing yes, but there are a small few around who joined Tilley’s fan club, buying this cheap creep’s con game hook line and sinker…but hey, thats their problem — they are gullible and suckers for a British accent intermingled with lies, while not being able to point to a single lawful contribution Tilley made to the Hotel. Lots of illegal ones, but none that were lawful unless you count re-painting the elevator doors. A few Chelseaites just don’t want Stanley back because they have own legal issues they haven’t been compelled to fight since Krauss and Elder staged their faltering coup. They already have pretty cheap rent (by NYC standards) so they’d rather just leave the fighting to others and reap the benefits, probably jump in at the tail end and declare “WELCOME HOME STANLEY, WE FOUGHT FOR YOU ALL THE WAY!!!”

Reality – Do we come to your home and tell you how to spend your food stamps? No?
You’re entitled to your opinion, of course, the problem is you don’t know what youre talking about. Fact is the Chelsea Hotel protest has reverberated outward toward other NYC tenants in distress from landlord harassment and lack of rent control. But even if it hadn’t, are you suggesting we ignore whats going on in our own home and quit our jobs to become full time tenant activists? You seem to be. But we can’t. Protests are better staged before one gets evicted, not afterward. As for your speculation over what Chelsea residents have in their bank accounts or do not, for that matter, how is that your concern, exactly? There seems to be an implication that a bohemian personality is a neer-do-well without a penny to buy a pot to piss in, which only demonstrates your own ignorance. If there were no successful bohemians, then there would be no landmark designation on the Hotel Chlesea. Successful bohemians are what made the place what it is. You know as opposed to wannabe bohemians who have time to type inaccuracies on blogs about Hotels they say they don’t consider worthwhile.LikeLike

“White people”? Did you really just write that, “Reality”? Bloggers you should boot comments that are overtly racist. This aint some bulletin board of race hate. This is Hotel Chelsea, and we have plenty of people of color here both residents and staff alike.

Hey Reality wouldn’t it seem more appropriate to rail against the City that you say provides “crap jobs and housing” for Blacks and Hispanics? Not sure what bohemians, rich or poor, have to do with your problems. Unless one of them swiped your medication…
