City Council member Daniel Garodnick, who lives in Stuy Town and represents its residents told Crain’s the community was “wary about the change” because of its lack of experience.

CompassRock was created earlier this year to manage properties owned by CWCapital so that it wouldn’t have to outsource the responsibility. CompassRock also took over management duties at Harlem’s Riverton Houses complex in April. [Crain’s] — Adam Fusfeld
