Emergency hotel stays end on Friday for victims of the Wallace Avenue fire.

Tenants tell News 12 they don't know where they will go next.

"Where do I go from here? Last night I slept on a recliner. What do I do?" said Cynthia Quintana, a tenant of 2910 Wallace Ave.

Cynthia Quintana and Luz González say they don't know where they will be sleeping after Thursday night.

"Tomorrow is my check out day, they don't even want to give me an extension - even though I am disabled," said Gonzalez, a tenant of 2910 Wallace Ave.

Their apartment building on Wallace Avenue was destroyed in an electrical fire on Jan. 10. They were placed into temporary hotels by the American Red Cross, then passed along to the Housing Preservation and Development department, which assists with locating permanent housing. However, tenants say they have only been offered to be placed into the city's shelter system.

Quintana says she was placed into a shelter after her original hotel voucher expired on Jan. 21.

"They wanted me to stay in that room, in this shelter where I was going to be in a floor with only men and I am by myself," Quintana said.

Quintana left to stay with a friend due to safety concerns and ended up back at the hotel.

"They're starting another fire to my life, I lost everything, and they're treating me like I started that fire," said Quintana.

Maryette Mondelo lost everything to the fire. Her hotel stay also expires on Friday. She says in order to get emergency housing she'd have to leave her four dogs behind.

"The last time I talked with my coordinator, she said there is no extension, I am not willing to part with my pets, my pets are like my kids, I am not giving them up," said Mondelo.

HPD says hotel stays are usually only offered for five days, and it extended it due to the circumstances. HPD says it does provide placement for people with animals, but they must be registered as a service animal.

News 12 asked Mayor Eric Adams what can be done to help keep tenants out of shelters.

"We're going to do everything possible to make sure they have housing, no one goes without housing in New York City and we have to find out what can be done for the victims of the fire," said the mayor.

With time running out, tenants say they feel let down by the city.

"I don't know where I am going or what's happening, no one is telling me anything, it's very difficult," said Luz Gonzalez.
