					  <description><![CDATA[Located in the Northeast corner of the Bronx, in the area known as Baychester, sits the largest housing cooperative in the world. Co-op City is home to about 50,000 people; if it suddenly decided to secede from Bronx County, it would be one of the 15 largest cities in the state. &nbsp; ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[<img alt="2006 Dec" src="/content_images/cover2006_12small.jpg"/>Many years ago, when I was living on the Upper West
 Side, a neighbor of mine was notified over his scratchy intercom system
 that a UPS carrier had a package for him. Without hesitation, he buzzed in
 the deliveryman and opened his front door. Instead of receiving a new
 package, the neighbor was met by an intruder pointing a gun. Tragically, my
 neighbor was shot and killed.

					  <description><![CDATA[A few years ago, a commercial aired that featured a
 hip-looking fellow plugging away at his laptop&#8212;checking his e-mail,
 surfing the Web, downloading music. &nbsp;What was different about this guy
 was that he was on the roof of a skyscraper, and there were no wires
 connecting his computer to anything. &nbsp;

					  <description><![CDATA[On October 22, several hundred hurricane evacuees
 descended on Brooklyn&#8217;s New York City College of Technology. The
 school had been temporarily converted into an evacuation center, where
 refugees were screened before being sent to shelters that had been set up
 in two nearby Department of Education buildings. And all this occurred
 despite the fact that there was no hurricane anywhere near New York City
 this October.

					  <description><![CDATA[Stretching from 14th to 20th Streets between First
 Avenue and Avenue C on Manhattan&#8217;s East Side, the 110-building Peter
 Cooper Village and Stuyvesant Town high-rise complexes comprised a vast
 middle-class, largely rent-regulated city-within-the-city. In both
 communities, renters who wanted to stay in Manhattan could live a safe,
 secure life within a development containing modern elevator buildings, its
 own security force, and 80 acres of lawn and playground space.

					  <link>http://cooperator.com/articles/1352/1/Planning-for-Emergency-Evacuation/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[It is essential that co-op and condo boards or
 management companies have an emergency plan in place for situations like
 fires, power blackouts, hostage situations, or terrorism. While good
 planning is a major factor in keeping residents safe, hardware like
 emergency lighting and signage also play a key role in emergencies. To that
 purpose, let&#8217;s examine the various products, technologies, and laws
 relating to the safe evacuation of your building in the case of an
 emergency.

					  <description><![CDATA[Molds are naturally occurring organisms that are
 present almost everywhere. &nbsp;While molds need both moisture and
 nutrients to grow, moisture is the primary factor that promotes indoor mold
 growth. Therefore, whenever there is a water leak in a home or residential
 building, there is the potential for a mold-related legal claim.

					  <description><![CDATA[Living in a co-op or condo building is a lot like
 living in a small town. When everyone abides by the rules, life flows along
 smoothly. If that stops, though, and one person disrupts the flow, those
 smooth waters turn rough and trouble can ensue, causing hardship for
 everyone involved.

					  <description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s official. &nbsp;According to an analysis of
 FBI data by the Associated Press, New York is the safest big city in the
 United States, with roughly one crime reported for every 37 residents per
 year. &nbsp;

					  <description><![CDATA[Even though crime statistics are lower in New York City
 today than they have been in decades, the fact remains that in an urban
 metropolis such as this, crime is a reality. It only takes one break-in or
 personal assault to focus everyone&#8217;s mind on crime prevention and
 their own personal safety. Even buildings that already employ a doorman, a
 super, and maintenance staff may still consider hiring a security guard.
