"No Meat In The Building": Vegan Landlord Seeks Tenants For $5,750 New York Apartment

According to reports, a landlord in New York won't rent out the properties to anyone who prepares meat.
The landlords of flats and apartments in India's metropolitan and cosmopolitan cities are famous for their bizarre "vegetarian only" rules, but it is a little offbeat to know that one landlord in New York has placed a similar condition on his future tenants.
According to the New York Times, "the real estate listing that appeared briefly in Brooklyn last week sounded beguiling: two spacious, sun-drenched, full-floor apartments in a wide brick townhome in Fort Greene with spectacular outdoor spaces and period details. The "wonderful vegan landlord," the broker wrote, had only one house rule: "no meat or fish in the building."
Explaining the rules to one potential tenant, the real estate broker, Andrea Kelly, said meat eaters were not banned; cooking meat and fish was.
"It's not vegetarian-only, but the owner, Ms Michal Arieh Lerer lives in the building and doesn't want the smell of cooking meat drifting upstairs," she said.
