Hithis will be hard to explainI have a light fixture that is on the ceilingit is circular shaped and the insulation between the bulb and the ceiling is tornThe insulation is still there but the silver foil part is ripped a little and hangs down towards the light bulb.(but does not touch it) I am concerned because I'm worried about the insulation catching fireI noticed this when I replaced the bulb for the first timeI was goint to either Atear it offBTape it back with electrical tape (is that safe) Creplace bulb with a Flourescent or DJust not worry I don't leave that light on anywayWhat to do? I am a dancer (not that kindwellnot any more) and not good with this stuffThanks Guys!
those are not housing initiativesPeter Cooper Village and Stuyvesant city are midsection earnings housing that basically take place to look like initiativesi'm hoping this suggestion replaced into very effectual.
Well have ever been to a project before? Have you not heard stories of living conditions within those 12 years of being on a waiting list? Listen I grew up in the PJ's while my building wasn't the worst of the lot, I have seen it go from decent to unbearable within 5-10 years until I finally leftDon't get me wrong there are some well run NYCHA buildings throughout the city that have long waiting lists, but what did you expect that because the building was in Queens and by the beach that it would be different than any other NYCHA building in Brooklyn or anywhere else in the city? With that said, you could just stick it out for another 3 months and put in for a transfer for another development, that was better managedHow do you find a good project? The same way you find any other apt in NYC by going to the actual places your interested in to see how it is maintained and asking the residents how it is to live there, trust me they'll tell you the truth.
PKat a minimum, you should tape the wireIs it safe? It should beIt is better to do this than to ignore itJust wrap the tape around it several timesI am more worried about the condition of the rest of the wire than I am the actual area where you tape itIf the remainder of the wire looks OK, not dry rotted, then you should be good to go.
