Heh. My mom has paid $5760 in increased rent since 1989 for new mailboxes and windows. $20/mo. Her and every other rent regulated tenant in the building. $15,360 for a new interior for the elevator. $80/mo since 1997. Her and every other rent regulated tenant in the building.

Capital improvements really hurt rent regulated tenants long-term.
