Brooklyn, NY – She survived the Holocaust. But a tenacious life story wasn’t enough for 92-year old Eta Eckstein to keep her Brooklyn landlord at bay.
While out of her apartment in a rehab facility, the grandmother got evicted.
“It’s unspeakable,” says Eta’s grandson, Idan. “They just threw her belongings onto the street.” Eta’s family got no explanation from the landlord, Morris Piller.
They believe he wants her out of the $600-a-month rent-controlled apartment on Bay Parkway in Bay Ridge, where she’s lived for 40 years.
The landlord’s attorney declined comment when contacted by nbcnewyork.com
