Thelma Estévez received the keys and permission to return to her apartment in the building that suffered a deadly fire in the Bronx last Sunday.
“There is a lot of smell of smoke, but although (one) did not suffer damage, the psychological (damage) we have, I, my family, is not suitable for one to live there,” Estevez said.
Thelma, like other residents, could benefit from a lawsuit filed against the company Bronx Park Phase III Preservation LLC that manages the building.

“The lawsuit is going for a ‘billion’ because supposedly the doors did not lock as they should. It is a law that they are breaking with the city of New York,” said activist Awilda Cordero.
Rosa was one of those who started the lawsuit because she even has family still in the hospital.
“Justice for what happened, because it was something very ugly and they are leaving us behind with everything… My husband is critically well in the hospital,” said Rosa Reyes.
And it is that despite the fact that the investigation continues, the authorities say that it is possible that the door of the home where the fire broke out did not close, and this worries the neighbors.
