While the petitioner landlord accuses the tenants of instituting the rent strike solely because of the proposed HUD-approved October 1, 1980 rent increases and the tenants’ opposition to “gentrification” of the neighborhood, the respondent tenants accuse the landlord of neglect and subsequent sought-for justification on the basis that the premises are “luxury” and therefore any diminution in services is merely a de minimus inconvenience.
