A five-minute walk to work and around $600 a month in rent was hard to pass up in 1990.
Rodolfo Calica worked as a parking attendant at Maimonides Medical Center in Borough Park, Brooklyn.
His wife, Queenie Calica, also began working there in the 2000s as a housekeeper.
It made sense to them to move into one of the nearby buildings that Maimonides bought in the 1980s to serve as housing for its employees.
Now, after spending more than 30 years in the home, the Calicas are facing eviction.
