Public Advocate Letitia James and her Landlord Watchlist have released their annual worst-of-the-worst New York City landlord list for 2017. This year's top spot goes to Jonathan Cohen-Silvershore Properties, owner of 19 buildings with 188 units that gathered 1090 Housing Department violations and 15 Buildings Department complaints.

Last year's worst landlord Harry D. Silverstein recently passed, but his son has cleaned up his father's behavior a little, slipping down #5 on the list.

Is your landlord on the list?
