Yup likely you’re paying for other apartments. You still need to go on the 311 website and lodge a complaint. Another person mentioned contacting Coned, that’d also be wise.

Hey, I dunno what your rental experience in NYC is, but I’d recommend being prepared to move out if you talk to your landlord first.

It’s a Slim chance they’ll be willing to spend the money to diagnose the problem if it wasn’t intentional (which is more likely the case) and you’ll have a target on your back when you do eventually relent and involve 311 or ConEd because they’ll know it was you and dislike you for it.

I’m going to leave it alone here. Good luck.
