A resident who lives at 152-154 Second Ave. reports that the building's secure bike storage room in the basement was recently burglarized.
Per the resident: "All the locks [were] cut and about seven bikes are gone. You need two keys to access this room. I'm not necessarily saying it was an inside job, but there wasn't any forced entry."
The theft happened some time between Aug. 18 to Aug. 23. According to the resident, several people have access to the bike storage area, including the other tenants (there are 12 units in total), cleaning staff and super.
The resident says that the building has security cameras. To date there haven't been any updates from management about the theft, according to the resident.
Landlord Icon Realty began converting the former Sigmund Schwartz Gramercy Park Chapel between East Ninth Street and East 10th Street into a residential building with three additional floors
in April 2012. The rentals hit the market
back in March.
