House Re-Keyed January 2015

Please note: the house has been re-keyed. Purpose is so we can use Hoboken Lock for our locksmithing needs (and stop using the Stevens Locksmith)
Therefore- ANYONE WHO HAS AN OLD KEY, IT WILL NOT WORK (SO PLEASE DO NOT TRY IT)

837 Hudson became home to Phi Sigma Kappa 50 years ago!

50 years ago today, we closed on the fraternity house for $ 60,000.
We just received our new tax bill- our valuation is over $ 2.5 mil and the property taxes soared
above $ 35,000!!!

Bed Bugs no match for Heater!

3rd rear was the "ground zero" 'for our bedbugs problems that started 3 years ago.
We have eradicated them from all bedrooms, but could not eliminate them from 3rd rear, even though the exterminator was there a half a dozed times!

We finally threw in the towel and hired a pest control company that brought in a huge heater, and "cooked" the room to above 120 degrees. Adding to the task was having the sprinkler system shut down for the duration (heads removed and capped), then have the technicians return after the heating process to re-install them.

Hopefully this will be the end of our bedbug issues!
