Honoree: Margaret Mack (d. 2014) was a longtime tenant leader in the Tracey Towers, an 869-unit Mitchell-Lama complex built in 1972. Serving on the Tracey Towers Tenants Association, she championed the interests of residents on such issues as lack of heat or hot water, roof leakage, dirty hallways, faulty elevators, and other health and safety issues, as well as crime. Upon learning of proposed rent increases in 2011, she mobilized Tracey Towers’ tenants. It was in part due to her efforts that a judge trimmed the hike for many elderly and fixed-income tenants. She was also Chair of the Parks and Recreation Committee of Community Board 7. (Cohen)
