Strike Looms for Workers at Buildings
With a strike deadline set for 12:01 a.m. Friday, the union representing 28,000 workers in New York City apartment buildings has told more than 2,000 strike captains to gear up for a walkout, and many building owners and managers are rushing to hire replacement workers. Negotiators are planning to move into the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers tomorrow for three days of intense talks.
