Abstract
This chapter refers to the story about the tenant bid that was anticipated to pop up on the New York Times website in September 2006. It shows the headline of the article which read that Daniel Garodnick, as a representative of the 25,000 residents of Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village, intended to organize investors who could buy the two complexes and keep them affordable to the middle class. It also talks about Garodnick's plan to go to MetLife as a partner with the Tenants Association in the hopes to make the offer extremely desirable for the bidder. The chapter highlights that the lead story of the national edition of the New York Times proclaimed the two buildings were up for sale. It cites that the asking price for Stuy Town and Peter Cooper was nearly $5 billion, the biggest deal for a single American property in modern times.
