Jerry Ehrlich, former owner of the Pines Hotel, wants its severely damaged buildings torn down before someone gets hurt there. But who is the current owner?
Fallsburg building inspector Allen Frishman said the town plans to issue tickets for unkept grounds, broken windows and fences, and force the owner to take down buildings that are fire hazards.
But Frishman said the town also hasn't known who owns The Pines. County records list Fallsburg Estates as the owner. But A. P., who claims to be a 50 percent partner in Fallsburg Estates, is now suing another partner, M. S., and Princeton Realty Associates in state Supreme Court. Court papers say the property's deed was transferred to Princeton Realty, which is affiliated with Mr. S. A religious court involving a tribunal of rabbis in Brooklyn is also trying to settle the dispute, said Henri Shawn, the attorney for Princeton Realty. Shawn said Princeton Realty knows about the health and safety issues. The lawsuit delayed things.
"We want to cooperate fully," Shawn said.
Frishman said the town will soon take action on the property.
"We are going to proceed on this very expeditiously," Frishman said. "I'm not going to sit around."

I was a busboy at the Pines Hotel in 1950 when I was 17 years old. My parents bought a bungelow Colony in South Fallsburg almost within walking distance to the Pines. Other hotels in the area were the Nemerson, Windsor, Brickman,Majestic, and others that escape me. I guess I just had a Senior Moment !
