Carnegie Hall wants to convert the artist studios above the famed concert hall to rehearsal, office and classroom space, but six rent-stabilized tenants still remain.

I'm 96 years old,' the feisty Sherman insisted during an interview in her $530-a-month, 800-square-foot studio above the famed venue." The 43 market-rate tenants have all been gone since March. Some famous peeps have rallied on the rent-stabilized tenants' behalf. [NYP]For more stories from Curbed, go to curbed.com.
