MetroLoft’s legal troubles are mounting. Two lawsuits are brewing—one from a Tribeca condo board accusing them of decade-old, life-threatening construction flaws, and another from a construction company demanding $200K for unpaid work. MetroLoft denies all claims. Meanwhile, their East Side project’s general contractor racked up seven DOB violations—including falls and unsafe materials—though all have since been resolved. The developer blames human error for the current crisis but stays silent on the lawsuits. Chaos, lawsuits, and safety scares—MetroLoft’s got a lot on their plate.
