After we brought you reports this morning of the Jane Hotel's SRO residents' demonstration outside Sean MacPherson and Eric Goode's famed celebrity haunt The Waverly Inn that went down last night, we've received word that the protesters will be taking it to The Bowery tonight.

The tenants of the building where the new budget-chic Jane is located are going to be protesting their living conditions yet again, which they describe as "rat-infested conditions, often with no heat or hot water" due largely to the construction going on during the building's conversion to a hotel (they're blaming landlords MacPherson and Goode).

According to a press release the Jane Street Association has been sending around, Diane Von Furstenberg and Hugh Jackman both approached the protesters last night, asked them questions and looked at pictures of the living conditions. Apparently, tours of the building are being offered as well.

Tonight at 6:30, they will hit the streets again, this time taking their signs and voices to the outside of the Bowery Hotel (another one of MacPherson's celeb-hotspot properties). You've been warned.

protesting...?

The leader of that pack of so called protesters is a 50yr.- something "has been woman" who had planned to extortion large amounts of money from Mc Phearson & Goode since last summer, she 's the one that is going around the Hotel property dumping bleach over the brand new  carpeting , damaging the brand new bathrooms and hiding in her 2X4 SRO with her so called "therapy dog".she's gives a new meaning to the term "trailer park white trash..."  just listen and witness her loud stinking fouled breath mouth ( usually used to orally satiisfy P. Ricans &  homeless black man ) on the streets in the middle of a fight...!
