Summary
Five devoted friends become landlords and try to make their Harlem neighborhood a better place to live
Amazon.com description: Product Description: If you were looking for a real ghetto dump, you couldnât beat The Stratford Arms. There was Askia Ben Kenobi throwing karate chops upstairs, Petey Darden making booze downstairs, and Mrs. Brown grieving for Jack Johnson, whoâd died for the third time in a monthâand not a rent payer in the bunch. Still, when Paul Williams and the Action Group got the Arms for one dollar, they thought they had it made. But when their friend Chris was arrested for stealing stereos and Deanâs dog started biting fire hydrants and Gloria started kissing, being a landlord turned out to be a lot more work than being a kid.
