I live on the 6th floor of a 6 story elevator bldg with 50 units in the northern Bronx, NY City. Very tidy bldg very well kept nice area too (seems others here are not from NY so I'd just thought I'd give the heads up on The Bronx since it often has a bad rep)

anyway, the past few days the landlord has a heavy duty extension cord plugged into the compactor room running up the stairs to the roof. I hear people walking around sometimes but no machines or other mechanical sounds

Any idea what they're doing? I also notice a lot of junk on the side of the building.

Ask the landlord. I bet he knows. Or go up there and see what is going on...if you have access to the roof.

How are a bunch of people on the internet supposed to know what is happening on top of your apartment?

I really can't say whats going on, but one thing I did notice in the post was the heavy duty extension cord running up a stair well, if its not secured, its a safety issue.

I asked you landlord, and they were hosting a party for all the tenants but you weren't invited.
