i am moving into a new apt in the lower east side, but the roof is "OFF LIMITS!" any idea what can be done to get that rule changed?

i doubt they would change the rules on that.

Reword the sign. Any designer here should be able to help you with that. Then print it and cover up the old one. We just need a picture and dimensions!

do you have access to your roof? like is there a way on the roof? do the landlords live in the building with you?? is there a buildings maintenance person living there who watches the safety of the building?

you sound like a whiney girl.
just go up and open the door.
if you hear an alarm, walk calmly back to your unit, and smoke a square.if you don't hear an alarm, smoke your square outside. on the roof.
you're not gonna go to jail for trying this.

I don't undertand this question... none of us even live there—how would we know what to do to get the rule changed? Wouldn't you contact the landlord to ask this?

there must be a helipad on the roof if it is off limits or they might be shooting a rap video or something
