The court does believe that there were problems with leaks, which much more severely affected the tenants of the fourth floor than the tenants of the second floor. Although, as indicated above, loft tenants are subject to different standards from tenants of conventional housing, they nevertheless are entitled to be free from having water leak into their units and are entitled to a warranty of habitability abatement therefor. (See Gold v Howard, NYLJ, Dec. 9, 1980, p 10, col 5 [App Term, 1st Dept]; McGuinness v Jakubiak, 106 Misc 2d 317.)
