An elderly woman lived with her husband’s rotting corpse for weeks until alarmed neighbors noticed a foul smell coming from the couple’s Lower East Side apartment Tuesday, cops said.

Governor Cuomo announced that moratorium on commercial evictions has been extended to January 1, 2021. This aligns with the state's moratorium on residential evictions that have also been extended to January 1, 2021.

The coronavirus threatens to unleash a retail apocalypse on New York City, having already shuttered scores of beloved neighborhood eateries and other businesses facing unfulfillable rent payments and a lack of aid from the federal government.

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today signed an Executive Order extending the state's moratorium on COVID-related commercial evictions and foreclosures through January 1. This measure extends protections already in place for commercial tenants and mortgagors in recognition of the financial toll the pandemic has taken on business owners, including retail establishments and restaurants. The extension of this protection gives commercial tenants and mortgagors additional time to get bac...k on their feet and catch up on rent or their mortgage, or to renegotiate their lease terms to avoid foreclosure moving forward. "The health and economic impacts of this pandemic have been devastating, and we are continuing to do everything we can to support people who are suffering," Governor Cuomo said. "We are going to extend the commercial eviction and foreclosure moratorium through January 1st. That will now align with our residential eviction moratorium so they are both extended to the same date."
