Crown Heights Tenant Union

The Crown Heights Tenant Union is a tenants' rights group that works to deal with issues raised by what they assert to be the gentrification of the Crown Heights, Brooklyn neighborhood, just east of Prospect Park, New York.[1] It emerged from an alliance between Occupy Wall Street activists, Brooklyn tenants of color, and labor and tenant organizers in 2012.[2][3]
